I have a full Sky Sports package but don't get ESPN for some reason. I get ESPN Classic though, go figure!
GT1 TV is free to anyone with an internet connection if like me you don't get ESPN.

Good racing - and a great result for the Corvettes. I am working on finding out why the Phoenix cars were given a 10 place grid penalty for the feature race...it is something to do with the bullst "Balance of Performance" thing.

Last year the GT series supplied a document via their media website detailing the ballast and air intake restrictions handed out to each team. Nothing this year (YET).

I have an interview with Stephane Ratel arranged for the Silverstone FIA GT round, so will be asking him directly...

ESPN is a separate subscription available through the Sky, think I got mine from the Sky website as I set up an account.

The 10 place grid penalty was for a "balance of performance irregularity"......yep go figure!

Noticed the Vitafone Maserati driver Bertolini was moaning the Ford GT and Corvette were "too fast" for the Maserati to catch.....so expect more restriction for both....until the Maserati is the fastest car .....then the performance will be "balanced".

Hope they keep it just the way it is.....but bet they don't.

I will let you know what Mr Ratel says (or doesn't say...)

Very cool site - thanks for the heads up!
