Yesterday (sunday)afternoon - fabulous motorsport!

[tonyhetherington]

What can I say, I sat down to have some lunch yesterday....to Moto GP. AWESOME final lap, with some of the best racing I've seen in a long time. What a season it's going ot be!! THEN...before I even get an opportunity to do the washing up, on coes WRC! Wonderful to see such skilled drivers...and one thing that amazes me - all that variation, all that sliding, and over 12miles (for example) they're 0.1seconds apart. Wow!

.......but, hold the phone.....it's not over just yet. Right then on comes rounds 1,2,3 of the BTCC. Needless to say, I didn't actually get up from my lunch until about 17:00 !!!

What a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon. Ironically, no F1 in sight (though I'm still a huge fan so not going to start that conversation off!).

Best quote of the day:

MotoGP commentator said:

What's he saying? I think its "I'm number one"

Er, no! Think it was the good old coffee beans!

Missed out the racing from Monza on Eurosport ... and the British Superbikes from Thruxton.

Did anybody catch the Champcars from Long Beach ? It was a bit dull but it was wrecked totally by Eurosports commentator who missed the start of the race when he was busy talking bollox and then proceeded to continually get Junqueiras and Almendingers names wrong and worse of all he gulped and smacked his lips at the end of every sentence. Not sure I can cope with this guy for a whole year..
