Who’s tuning in for qualifying and the main event? http://www.itv.com/btcc/live/ You'll just need to grab an expat shield to deal with the IP restrictions.
Looks like we might get some Rain. 🙂
Actually, scratch that—no rain in sight. It’s beautiful and sunny out here; honestly, it couldn't be any better, at least for the moment.
In that first race, the Honda drivers managed to edge out the BMW crew.

I’m going to go catch some BTCC, but I was actually thinking about hanging out here instead—I much prefer the debates we have after the races. As for the races, it’s all just speculation at this point—everyone’s got their own theories on who might pull it off and who's likely to fall short.
I’m really not a fan of this evening schedule. It feels like nothing is happening all day long just to have everything hit us at once tonight. It makes it so hard to actually focus on the action without feeling rushed. I much prefer it when the race is scheduled for the morning or maybe around 2:00 PM.
That Williams rear wing looks specifically tuned for high-speed tracks. It’s no surprise if it nets him at least half a second per lap over the field, and honestly, I wouldn't be shocked to see a gain of one or two seconds during qualifying. As for the race itself, though? I'm not feeling quite as optimistic.
Did this winning Audi use Williams KERS? I was watching while the Audi e-tron cars were leading, though I'm not entirely sure if they ended up taking the win in the end.
Honestly, this isn't even a marathon compared to a track race. The winner is simply going to be whoever manages to keep their head from spinning after two hours behind the wheel.

Didn't they recently find some items in someone's kit that didn't exactly look like standard racing tools or spare parts? Maybe that's why they're being a bit more thorough at Customs lately.
Huge congrats to Sebastian Vettel on clinching the championship, kudos to Jenson Button for taking the win, and of course, a shoutout to Sergio Perez, who once again showed us all how it's done with those masterclass tire management skills!!!!
Who are we even talking about here? Lewis and his "dangerous" driving style. It honestly feels like he wasn't nearly as concerned about pulling away from Button as he was focused on trying to slow down Webber and Schumacher just enough so they wouldn't catch him on the final lap. But it looks like he ran into the wrong crowd... What was that, some new model of anti-radiation goggles or something?
