Generally good racing throughout the weekend. Too many interruptions for my liking though, it makes the sport look a bit of a joke when it's like that.
I'm not really keen on drifting but at least it's spectacular & takes skill to compete in. However, as it's a judged competition where the winner is effectively chosen based on the opinions of a few people, it means that it isn't a sport, IMO. eSports are fine. Doesn't take up any track time and it wasn't actually a bad race. Short races like F4 & touring cars need to be run over a number of laps instead of time. Safety cars take up a huge percentage of the race when they're timed. Those two disciplines produced the best racing of the event though. The GTs should have been so much better but the amateurishness of it all made it hard to take seriously. OK, the weather can't be controlled but there was no need for the stoppages to be anywhere near as long as they were. To quote myself from another forum during the first race: Quote:
Ideally, the event should be held at a venue with a karting circuit so that they can race instead of doing that slalom sideshow. If they want an event like that then autotest should be considered for the future. On the whole I'm a fan of the concept of the games. Hopefully it will get bigger and better. |
