PS What has this got to do with 'The Race'.
The 3½ minutes I managed to sit through would have been improved by the use of earplugs. Were there ever two more irritating presenters? I am also concerned that, with young Tamara racing, Bernie might discover that:

a) Minis can be quite exciting, in a way that F1 demonstration (is that any different from an F1 race other than having 19 fewer cars?) isn't.

b) Marshals have a purpose.

So, will I watch any more of this 'thrill-a-minute action-packed race series'? Nooooo.
