Hola

Was at Brands Hatch again today for the second instalment of the WTCC. Another outrageously hot day.

I spent all day at the top of the Druids hairpin as it's a great place to watch the racing from, so I make no excuses for the shots being shabby and similar!

Here goes...

Opening lap and they're up to no good already. Menu and Farfus collide, no one goes off - luckily

Smart looking BM, shame it's not that fast

Racing was pretty close at times...

...too close at others. Volvo gets shunted into a trip to the beach

Good stuff Dave. Quality pan for #8.
I didn't even get around to Druids, spent all day at Surtees and Stirlings.
