Those marshals are nutters !

I thought the 207's at the end were entertaining, lots of use of the kerbs and some serious 2 wheel action seemed to be the result. Just a shame the crash at the end spoiled what was looking to be a good finish.

The crash was always going to happen though sooner or later, I thought sooner

[Mikey G]

True
I thought that nutter at the end was going to get beat up by the marshalls for that stunt, although it was a bad bend he should have been going a lot slower under the red flag.

[FourWheelDrift]

Yes

Did you notice also how he only took his helmet off to talk to them after he had climbed the tyre barrier and got it between him and them

[Mikey G]

I would imagine the officials to the series would give him a very harsh telling off? Certainly the guy in the safety car seemed extremely angry at him. At the end of the day the marshalls do a very good and dangerous job and his actions could very easily have seriously injured more than one of them...

Apart from that I like the look of the circuit, a poor mans Monaco I remember the commentator calling it. Some very good action throughout.

I seem to remember a touring car race there last year? that was also a very entertaining race to watch, just a shame this type of circuit is getting rarer on the race calendars.
