Massively disappointing for Honda. Championship virtually in Lopez's hands already.

Our sentiments exactly, becoming too one sided like the WRC. Not to degenerate JML, but at least Priaulx made his titles go down to the wire, although that was more due to the weight TBH

thlbtcc should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
It's the WRC and not the WTCC, so perhaps I shouldn't post it, however have a read of this.

Hyundai used non-homologated parts, of a different weight, in the WRC this year since round 1 and have been handed a €50,000 fine, not exclusion, by the FIA http://www.wrc.com/en/wrc/news/june-...1--12-12-.html

Isn't that what happens when you slam on the brakes at that speed?
The weight shifts forward, the nose dips and the rear rises?

No, they're all like that by design to let the air out. I think they're ugly as well.

They're cut super high regardless.

This is under acceleration at Paul Ricard.

Agreed.

The old Granta was the best car ever though. It was just goofy looking in general because of how small the road car was.

That's a good decision, Dahlgren is a very accomplished driver and has plenty of experience in tin top racing

If the rumours are correct, Esteban Guerrieri will drive for Campos in Termas.

Ribeiro trying to find an Argentinean replacement for Lopez?

Guerrieri confirmed for Termas.

Meanwhile, some unexpected news - Honda will enter a 4th factory car in Motegi:

Nice, a couple of extra cars never go amiss!

I wonder with the 4th Honda if they could use it for different drivers at each flyaway event remaining in the season?

Interesting to note, according to Mauricio Gallardo (TV presenter on FOX in Argentina), Volvo are working on a post-race test for Nestor Girolami
