I don't normally care about engine noise but these new F4 cars sound like they're propelled by flatulence...

And it's in the awful-looking Tatuus chassis too. I much preferred the Mygale.

ITV just need to go away. They didn't even bother to show the pass for the win in their Carrera Cup "highlights".

A cracking Mini race just then. Nice to see Gravett mixing it at the front, finally living up to his name.

Yeah I wondered what happened there, suddenly dropped to 4th.

Yes looked much better than last year, which is good if a BTCC move is a possibility for next season.

It might not always be perfect but the ITV coverage is by far the best and most extensive TV coverage the BTCC has ever had. Wish it away at your peril

As a clerk said in a race briefing I was at a couple of weeks ago if you can't see the light panels then I'll be sending you to the medical centre to have your eyes checked before I throw the book at you.

That might well be the case but we're still miles behind the rest of the world with motorsport coverage on TV. Always have been.

Ride height rules are an absolute joke. Honestly hope TCR UK becomes bigger than this shambles of a series.

There’s ride height rules in every series I’ve ever come across, even at a club level.

Wow what a result by Gamble! I never expected that, really! Great to see.
And a brilliant fight between TIngram and Shedden.
Sutton doesn't seem like Sutton at all...

That's because it was never Sutton alone, but Sutton and the car. It was the package. He could dial in the Subaru and the Infiniti to suit his style. The Focus is more difficult. If he can get it working to suit his style then he'll be up there. But I'm not convinced the new package will work

If I understood correctly that was a mega result for Adam Morgan who had no hybrid boost at all.
