Last race in 2015, last race for Loeb. Should be some pretty good TV picture.

I wonder how Friday evening slot works out

Live night practice to be streamed on fiawtcc.com

Wonder what approach will the teams take - set up the car for the qualifying in the heat, or set it for the night races. Could be an interesting grid tomorrow

After such a dull race I'm starting to think that Race 1 from the reversed might actually be good for spicing the things up and keeping poeple excited for Race 2. Though still a strange idea

So, Norbi vs Mehdi. Going to be interesting

hopefully the marshals learn to move cars faster as that taken a bit too long to get rid of two cars or add a crane at that turn

Was not aware this was on.

And it has to be said, this is possibly the dullest motorsport I ahve ever witnessed.

The track is basically a sand racing circuit, the cars cant get anywhere near to one another. What few of them there are.

It is in all honesty an embarassment to anyone involved, teams, media, marshals who were dragging a car with broken suspension along the ground!

Utterly shambolic

worst round of the season. hope they don't return to this track, it doesn't suite cars at all.

season final Thailand would be better.

Well, was pretty dull again (especially with 2 Citroens in front at the start), circuit definitely not suited to touring cars. No massive braking ares = almost no overtakes - same situation like at Slovakia Ring.

Well done to Norbi, I'm glad he's won the title. At least that's the title Citroen hasn't taken away

Or change your Middle East night venue. Though, I believe both Sakhir and Abu-Dhabi aren't realistic options with F1 and WEC finales taking places there in November as well

Hahah that reminds me of last race of this year BTCC when marshals was trying to tow Stewart Lines Toyota from gravel trap and that Ford Ranger was slipping all over grass.

Dull races on an utterly bland circuit. The most exciting thing about the event was the fact that Eurosport have a new logo.
