Pirelli World Challenge Rounds 3 & 4: St. Petersburg
Already less than a week until Pirelli World Challenge rounds 3 and 4 at St. Petersburg, obviously a vastly different circuit than Circuit of the Americas. Despite the track differences, I think we can expect to see some of the same cars and drivers up front, along with some pilots like Pilgrim, Thorne and Leitzinger, who had rough weekends at COTA.

My wife and I are wanting to follow this series more this year. Will either of these streams work in the UK?
Thanks. |

The entry list on post #1 is not available, but here's the PDF:
http://www.world-challenge.com/image...y-List-v10.pdf Reckon it looks the same as COTA, but I haven't looked real hard. Saint Pete is one of the better street courses, IMO. My weekend is a bit more conducive to watch these live this time, w/ the exception of the 1045 Sunday morning start. I'll prayer for the rest of you heathens. |

I can't make it to this race but was wondering how many other fans here are going to this race. With this series on the rise, I wonder if Indycar will start feeling the pressure to do better because the opening act will be occupied by by the GT3 fans and then leave before the Indycar race.
I missed out on the ten tenths compound at CoTA this year and Miller last year, but hopefully I can make to the Canadian Tire (used to be Mosport) racetrack in May. This series has such a big following here but it doesn't seem to be that well attended in person. Maybe it's because I'm old and like to get the experience in person. I do hope it's not because I'm old because my dad is old and I'm still young in my mind. |

Sounds like Marcelo Hahn will be bringing the new Reiter Gallardo Extenso R-EX to World Challenge for this weekend!

Yep, more mass carnage from a standing start. 25 minute race anyone?

All those hundreds of thousands of fans that came for the race have to see this.

Snark aside, it does seem that maybe 40 GT cars doing standing starts on a street circuit lined by concrete may not be the best of ideas.

Its bad enough teams have to risk their cars around street circuits but causing carnage for carnage sake?

These cars look much better around this track than CoTA.

PWC still hasn't lived up to all the hype,with 50 minute sprints,standing starts,and street courses.i don't think it will,it does have a bunch of cool looking cars though,if only we can get one green race would be awesome.

Very disappointing race. It reminded me of the 2013 Baltimore ALMS race. The good news is, unlike at Baltimore, they get another go at it tomorrow.
