I am glad they showed practice and qualifying because they are more enjoyable watches than the race on occasion. Hopefully Imola will not disappoint. Got lots of potential to be a great one. I like the looks of the cars so far and a grid in the low to mid 40's could be what we need rather than 55-60. Awesome that AF Corse has their full squad in the series right now. Porsche and Aston has a big presence too. Who needs WEC GTE? Not interested in that anymore after Ford and BMW left.

I think you’re right on grid numbers, Imola is a very gravel trap heavy circuit (never a complaint!) so a smaller grid hopefully reduces the odds a little for it being a FCYfest Really hope they have ditched the FCY to safety car rule for this year but doubt it |

Barely 9 minutes in, and we already have a FCY.

CRAP! Stupid Safety car!
And that hs nothing to do with the repairs, these were done under the FCY. THat's just a SC for the show. SRO still has not learnt anything |

32' -> 2nd FCY
Luckily we get 2 accidents in one go -- 41' green 43' FCY again. Accident during the restart. Accident caused by the stupid SC rules. Do I need to say it again? Last edited by gert; 26 Jul 2020 at 12:17. |

The cars are too far spread out. Let's organize a Safety Car bunch up, shall we?
Thank you, Alvaro! -- Can we get another one? A 15-minute sprint to the flag, winner takes all. Sounds exciting, no? Last edited by gert; 26 Jul 2020 at 14:05. |

Had any of National or International series who race at Imola GT race as strange as this?
Why do they keep using SC after FCY? What for? Why couldn't they just show green right after FCY??? |

Everything aside, the lead WRT Audi had some blistering pace.

In a class of it's own after the 66 blew it. I enjoyed the race, although the stream kept dying on me towards the end. I also can't understand the need for a SC after a FCY... My son didn't enjoy it so much. A multitude of drive-throughs and finally a big puncture to put them out.

The whole FCY followed by SC is a bit tiring. They were doing this when I watched the Silverstone race at the track last year. It does spoil the flow of the race, does not make it more exciting for the viewers and causes constant carnage as the cars bunch up and crash again. Must cost a fortune in repairs.
Still, great to see the series back, going strong and the best car and drivers won. |
