Is it just me or is all this narrow street stuff just not nearly as good on nearly all levels as a proper circuit?

This circuit in particular just looks like it is asking for trouble.

Whilst I said trouble I was not really meaning it in the safety way.

It was more a comment on how narrow it is - it is almost too narrow for two cars to be side by side.

In many cases this leads to very dull racing with only one racing line and little room for multiple lines, variation, uncertainty & overtaking. And hence something worth watching.

This race certainly looked a lot less exciting & more processional than a round of BTCC at any number of open UK circuits. And then they had a big traffic jam.

EDIT - I posted the above before I read about Dan. Very sad.
