Ch 7 Telecast.....Adelaide Qualifying

I noticed in qualifying that Ch7 had all the cars in position but refrained from using red and blue to identify the manufacturer......Did anyone else notice this?......Are they preparing us to support teams rather than manufacturers in case one manufacturer falls over?

I noticed the same in the support GT car race. It gave driver name and main sponser or team name, but not he type of car.

Which given the number of unfamiliar and exotic cars and drivers I found annoying.

Really?

Viper, Gallardo, a few more, then the rest Porsche's, how can you not manage that?

I agree with you bathurst77, it was annoying not to know which driver was in what car when it could be expected that 99.9% of the audience would not be familiar with the entire field

Agree - when the grid was listed up at the start of each GT race it would have been nice to know what cars they were driving.
