I have to almost agree with you there Minidoh. I don’t yet prefer it to F1, but it was damn near close as good.

So much action and amazing to see everyone involved and vying for postion at the start, where in any other race the richer teams streak away from the ‘back markers’. There were some great passing manouvres – that’s a great track at Brands Hatch – never seen it before though obviously I’ve heard of its history.

Well done to Brazil, their car and driver were amazing. I am also really pleased to see how well Matt Halliday did for NZ after his mistake on the warm-up lapthat put him to the back and starting from the pitts. Coming fourth after that was a great drive.

And, what about that amazing accident with Italy vs Lebanon. The in-car camera catching his split-second panicked flailing was stunning footage. I was so pleased to see him walk away, and later smiling about the crash. It looks like this new sport has a great crop of young and very talented drivers, and I for one shan’t miss any future races.
