You mean Garcia's car? But in that incident (between Garcia and a Chevy) there was a safety car situation.

Congratulations SEAT! Fantastic day for our Spanish manufacturer. Three cars in top-five, strong job.

Shame for Priaulx, he was on for the win, oh well...

The races are far too short, should be another 5 laps at least IMO.

After this weekend I conclude FIA was right in their decision to make FWD 20 kg lighter.

a little too much contact in race 2 .. too bad for Priaulx .he had a great chance today . even with 50 kilos .
tough luck for Giovanardi . should have known nobody is gonna give a place .
super Rydell . super Plato . good for Seat

After being disappointed by race 1, was hoping that race 2 would be a bit more lively, which it was! Definately looks like it could be a decent series, i think the weighting is pretty fair now. Shame can't get the same numbers in BTCC, grid looks great!

IMO some WTCC races are to short, some are to long. It just depends on the situation on track. How many minutes is a BTCC race?

It was also great to see such a joy and celebration of Seat bosses and mechanics, because they are still not so used to it, when Alfa or BMW wins, bosses look just plain cynical, 'oh, nice, we won - again' - expression on their faces.

It was a good day, I was at Abbey and the first lap they were trying to go in 3 a-breast! Unlucky for Andy, he would probably of won had it not been for the puncture.
