They are planning a whole season - 5 or more races. Depends on what they can organise. Great concept though and some good racing. Hans Stuck sliding his car on every corner was great Race was live on Motors TV, so I would guess they would show the others too.

More details here

Boring as hell tbh. Wont be watching it again. If you want to see Nigel at his peak go and get a copy of the 92 F1 championship.

The hype surrounding this reminded me of the A1 series...

I enjoyed every minute of that. Mansell drove in his usual style making the car do what he wanted to and he was really pushed by Fittipaldi who also was a star on the day. Hats off to Stuck for catching that lurid slide after he tried to overtake.

It was great to see all these drivers of past times still showing that they can pedal a car round fast without traction control and carbon brakes or automatic gearboxes etc.

The lesser aerodynamics allowed for closer racing too. I think there is a lot that the F!A could learn here to improve the spectacle of F1 racing.

I thought it was great Just hope they'll do more races next year!
They would have had more overtaking action on a curcuit which had more overtaking places, that one was just a set of bends really, not many long straights.
And hearing 82 year old Murray commentating topped it off

Great I thought. Mansell showed he hasnt lost it. I would love to see how a current F1 driver would have done - would they have been any faster ?
