I watched it live on Motors TV and thought it very entertaining.
Lots of nice sliding and some close racing (some too close, which resulted in me shouting, what did you think you were doing!). Oh and Ben Edwards commentating! |

I missed it I went for a walk around the paddock etc - but I wish I hadn't. From what my dad said who was stood on the outside of Luffield it was one heck of a race........

Sliding due to wet weather tires on a dry(ing)track...was very entertaining coming round brooklands and luffield! Thought we might get one or two in our gravel trap but no such luck!

Where did you watch the race from Dr? Was one of the better races of the weekend, although the touring cars had their moments!

Didn't see westbrook go off at the start but yet again he provided the action cutting his way back up to 3rd, a little bit like him starting from the pit lane at thruxton and crashing and banging his way thru the field.
Only a shame there was only 11-12 cars(i think) making the grid what has happened to the rest ? |

Just as he got back into contention Westbrook went off again, at the same place! He then had to do it all again! Good fun and for most of it clean.

Think there was only that amount of cars in the race at Brands Hatch as well.
Was a good race, even better if there were more of them. |
