Is it just me or is anyone else getting a really poor signal from Motors TV for this? Every other channel on my Sky box is perfect but for some reason motors TV is breaking up terribly. Almost unwatchable which is a shame as my wife wants to watch the 20Twenty cricket instead? rolleyes

Just spent the last few hours watching some decent track action and some beautifiul cars.

Thanks for the alert - otherwise I would have missed it all.

Was watching it earlier. Thought the Innes Ireland trophy race was great. Shame about the Sauber C8 and 962 get together at Copse in the first Group C race today though. frown Top TV! smile

I was at Abbey where you can see Becketts, Stowe, Vale, Club, straight, Abbey and Bridge (so anyone saying you can't see much at Silverstone is talking bks). Anyway I was there for the GTs, watching the Bizzarini slowly undress itself each lap before dumping it's exhaust baffles in the middle of the track and its exhaust just offline on the exit of Abbey. Sounded better without them smile

F1s wonderfull but the Alfa engined Lotus and Brabham Repco were dangerously slow in the FIA race.

Looking foward to the saloons tomorrow.

Spent the evening watching the Denny Hulme race live on Motors last night. Fantastic coverage! (apart from the constant sucking up to Stretton and Oliver.). Well done Motors, made my evening!thumbup

Some pretty good races over the course of the weekend, the grandstands do seem a bit empty though!

There was mention earlier of a large number of spectators being there, I assume they are in the paddocks and spread out around the track rather than sitting in the stands.

The MotorsTV coverage has been wonderful, a great way to spend the day when it has been too hot to sit in my back yard! smile

Watched Motors tv this morning before going to Silverstone.

Now back home and watching the end of the group C race that we missed to go home (I can't believe it's still on (delayed)). smile

57,000 people at the circuit, just spread around. Plus some of the stands weren't open when I had time to wander around on Friday.
