Loving the disguised Jack Daniels Livery. What were the races like? Managed to miss them yet again!

The whole weekend was superb. Excusing the crap layout for pic taking....

The 888 boys put on a great show.

Is that the 'Jack Lives Here' logo, it was the first thing that came to mind but wondered why the need to cover it up - is it because of the religious views of the host country?

Fab pictures

It sure is....Not a dry state as such but still no obvious advertising aloud. Same can be said for these guys. Both teams made the local press due to the work and money the spent re-branding.

Thats Jim Beam if anyone is confused, took me a few seconds to work out I love the ingenuity of the marketing departments for disguising the advertising, much like tobacco back in the day in f1.

3pm next Sunday (28th), probably also repeated 11ty billion times.

Although there isn't a synopsis on the sky tv guide i presume it's the new season rather than repeats of last.
