  • You know the racing is going to be good when you see three Minis, a Ford Fiesta and Escort followed by a Dolomite Sprint. Goodwood often looks a fairly narrow circuit, but this six-car battle makes it look positively huge.
    You just don't see this in modern racing, maybe BTCC and Moto GP, but you will be able to see it on April 13-14 at the 81st Members' Meeting presented by Audrain Motorsport.

      Likewise - saw one of the Pre 66 touring car races at Silverstone back in 2022 and there was a great match-up between a mini and some big American car (forgot what it was). The American car pulling ahead on straights and Mini catching up/being very nimble/fast round corners. Brilliant racing

Me gustaría saber de las mas de 1000 carreras de F1 cuantas fueron espectaculares te aseguro que no son mas de 50. Pero bueno esta gente se piensa que en los 70 u 80 cambiaban 15 veces lider de carrera llegaban todas las carreras todos a a menos de un segundo y que habían 400 adelantamientos. Jaja eso nunca existo solo fueron excepciones nada mas. Aparte son autos sin aerodinámica logico que veas esto.
