I would also add the first half of 2012 to that tally, as he was the closest rival to Alonso at the halfway stage of the season

While i can’t say i’ve seen all these races i believe that there could be a case for the Bathurst 1000 to be included in this list. But i do think all of these races in the list showcased the very best of motor racing.

i can agree to that as one of the parts of the x-factor, it definently is a major part. But there are other tracks that do have x-factor without the danger. As with my example, part of monza’s x-factor is the […]

Congrats to Whincup & Dumbrell. Thats what a motor race should be like. Two drivers going for it, at the limit of their ability.
Those last 20 laps was just exciting. And the 0.31 second winning margin compared […] -

Really? I find them to be overly-dramatic and wildly over-produced, myself.
Each to their own. I like how they set the mood for the race, but i can see they are are as you say they are, overly-dramatic and […]

It’s unfortunate that SPEED aren’t covering it from the track this year, as it is the 50th anniversary. Although they didn’t know much about the series they seemed to enjoy it from what i saw of their coverage. […]

With the manufactures i think the only ford teams with ford contracts are FPR, DJR and SBR. And the article says that SBR are losing ford backing at the end of the year. I suppose if the Mercedes group wants in, […]

That’s what I meant about introducing them halfway through the year. they’d only need to change bodywork. I’m not sure what regulations dtm engines are, but that could work. I’m sure we’ll know by bathurst in any case.

Don’t worry, i’m a sceptical as you in this matter, why would they even want to? Apart from the international racing that hasn’t yet materialised, why would they go for Australian motorsport? But saying that, […]
