I loved Bintcliffe back then. I think it was his unlikely seat in that Audi. He did well to go from watching BTCC on TV and 4 years later sitting in the best car in touring cars . He even had to sell his watch to buy tyres at one round while in Clio racing.
Many thanks for this, it's nice to see the full highlights of this round. Burt's crash was pretty horrific and it was impressive he was racing again just a couple of rounds later. I also recall Menu remarking in Autosport that while Bintcliffe did well to hold up a huge queue of cars, the defending was way over the top🙂
Wow I'm just watching the latest btcc and big mini challenge support races crashes at oulton park 2 weeks ago and IMO the 2 mini crashes and other crashes in similar cars today were bigger crashes than this one and iits huge testament to the safety of the cars designs today as how drivers today suffer less injuries than Bert's one for crashing Inna bigger way . It's only through recent car crash safety tests that I appreciate why modern cars which to often look the same and no individual character to eachother are more superior to own to the better cars of this era
I remember this race well and Burt's crash, I was on the hill directly opposite and you can't get the violence and speed of that impact from a video, it took quite a while to get him out.
Somthings not making sense? ...is why were the 2 Audi's seem to have a power and speed difference? Bintcliffes Audi seemed way slower than the othe Audi? Why was that?

We were in Oulton Park last weekend, brilliant track. 👍
Wow that was so exciting just as if it was a live broadcast. Thanks for sharing it.
90s BTCC surely wild
this is peak racing
I can’t help but imagine how bad the Burt crash could’ve been if the impact was drivers’ side… awful crash that was.
I think it would almost certainly have been fatal had it been the other side
I know I'm 3 years late, but where's part 2?!
Here for the thumbnail
😂
Let's hope that sort of thing doesn't get banned like in Formula Woke.
_You know when you've been thumbnailed_
Super nice Upload Mate
Is that big long race a Race on Monday why is Great Britain 24 hours behind Australia
The race was 27th May, since the last Monday in May is usually a public holiday in the UK I'm guessing they decided to run it then.
Thankyou I am from Australia

Plain and simple Bintcliffe just wasn't as fast as Biela. Biela won the championship where Bintcliffe finished 6th or 7th that year I think.
@@damaster316 so there was no difference then? like bias favoritism from the team??
@@benconway9010 maybe there was but we will never know mate!
@@damaster316 yeah but Biela was already a mega-experienced, multiple champion and Bintcliffe had just graduated from the Clio cup...
Biela was a really good driver and Bintcliffe was a really shit driver.
I can’t stand how pronounce Ravaglia 🤌🏽
