Lol when I see normal traffic driving around Brands as far as I'm concerned they're not road races

Yep, technically, all tarmac racing is road racing, with tracks being known as short circuit, you then have the Real Roads Racing which is on public roads. Glad it is getting coverage on tv at last.

Anyone seen when this is on yet?

Haven't noticed this mentioned anywhere. Bbc1 ni are showing a series "road riders" about the people involved in road racing. 1st one was on last week and is on iPlayer. Second was on tonight.
