I found the first two races very exciting. The Race 1 battle between Hill and Sutton in particular was hair-raising stuff - I was really expecting one or both of them to fly off into the gravel at almost any moment, they looked that on the edge, especially with all the contact between them.
Yes the BMWs were very strong, but I see that as a good thing as the championship is wide open now. Given how much Tingram and Sutton in particular have come on since Turkington's last championship win, I think it's great that he's in a position to mount a serious challenge, with Hill in the mix as well.
Someone just give Cookie and JP new engines and it would all be perfect.
The commentary was great and to me it seemed less dumbed-down this time out on ITV 1, which is good.
I'm also really continuing to enjoy the absence of the soft tyre, while that lasts... Surely anyone can see it wasn't needed this weekend?
