I missed this F 1 race, but it sounds like a parade at the front at least.
Did catch and really enjoy the WEC sports car race at Silverstone.
This was really exciting to watch. Great battles for the lead at different points in the race
, and I mean epic battles. Porsche and Audi going hammer and tong lap after lap.
The performance of these LMP 1 cars is incredible their aero and mechanical grip opening the whole track for them to work their way thru traffic or to set each other for a pass.
Cool seeing Ferrari, Porsche, Aston Martin, and other GT cars really competing with each other.
The new Porsche 918 is coming very close to the well established and mostly dominate
Audi diesel monsters. A little more reliability in the Porsche squad and its on for the lead.
I'm loving the innovation and differing approach in design concept . Largely missing in most other series these days
Great drivers, competitive cars in most of the classes, and genuine racing for the lead.
This is what we watch racing for.
Check it out , I doubt you will find yourself dozing off while watching!
