Racing Rivals
Behind the scenes documentary follows SEAT racers
Discussion
I think Stefan deserves to win; unlike others he did not throw toys out of the pram when he went off. The problem was down to the design of the cars. One guy swore at his mechanics. As for O'Brien at Silverstone; he should have been slung out with no refund! All this "pick a corner" rubbish, just proves he is a nasty piece of work.

Shame about his off at Oulton. He has his work cut out to beat Huffy now
Did anyone else see the 'off' no brakes entering Druids going about 70mph too fast
up on two wheels (did very well not to roll it straight over at this point) into the gravel trap on two wheels then with no speed scrubbed off onto 4 wheels and into the barrier, the car left the ground entirely with all 4 wheels being higher than the tyre barrier. It was a great oh my gawd moment !!!!

Yeah, saw that! But before that on the same lap, he knocked my mate James Pickford off whilst James was leading
They were all suffering from brake problems at Oulton though
i'm pretty sure it was 1700, so its somewhere between 1500-2500.
Dont forget to vote for Pistonhead sponsored Spencer Marsh for Brands Pole ( @ www.seatcuprachampionship.com)
That incident was at Croft by the way with Huff and Goshawk (who braked).

Personally I think the whole thing is as dull as dishwater. Load of failed F3 and touring car drivers trying to resurrect their career. A SEAT european touring car drive is nothing to shout about. The car sturggles with Jordi Gene, who's no slouch, driving it, so how any of the drivers from this are going to cope I don't know. Anyone who's ever been to Donington to see Euro Touring Cars knows exactly what I'm talking about. Most competitive form of motorsport I've ever seen

I suggested to Mark McKenna that he put Neil and Mark from "Be a Grand Prix driver", Tiff Needell and few more drivers to spice things up. He seemed only interested in the £75K price tag. This series is not about talent; it is an expensive farce.
Anyway as far as Mark and I are concerned the Tuscans are much more value all round.
