Not just the FIA GTs - they covered all 3 BTCC races, plus the support races (Clio Cup, Porsche Carreras etc.) at Rockingham, and as far as I'm aware will do the same all season.

Looking forward to it.
 
I'll probably miss that. I'm off to Pembrey to watch the British Truck Racing championship. It'll be repeated at some point though wont it?
 
What are your thoughts on the season opener guys? I thought it was brilliant. Plenty of suspense throughout the race. Gigawave's strategy was unexpected. I was hoping for Fassler/Deletraz to win the race, but never mind long way to go yet. No doubt Ryan Sharp did a superb job in the closing 5 minutes of the race, keeping Bartels at bay 👍

BTW, did anyone watch the GT3 race? I didn't have the chance to.
