today was the day i had been looking forward to for a long time and it was honestly an amazing day out

The track, two events took place, the nations cup and the race of champions, the nations cup where two drivers from a country would race two drivers from another country and the looser was knoccked out, the race of champions was the same thing with the looser getting knocked out.

Practice:

Mid engined RWD astras that were specially built for the event

Focus WRC car that set the back bumper on fire with anti lagg

Mattk + ed Fiat punto 320bhp 4 wheel drive

V8 Vantage's made the most amazing noise ever

Audi Quattro driven by the stig

Honda Fireblade 1100cc powered buggies

which a frenchie binned

Le Mans Tdi

Loud DTM audi

Andy Priaulx in his WTCC BMW 3 series

Terry Grant popped along later

Micheal Schumacher stalled his punto off the line and went a lap down

Christian Ppeiffer came on as well to do demonstrations as well

Then David Coulthard and Sebastien Vittel came out in the red bull racing and torro rosso f1 cars

Andy Priaulx then spun out in the semi final

In The final Michael Schumacher went up against Mattias Ekström who won last year

Ekstrom won in the red car in the third race beating Shumacher 2-1

Was a great day out and although it was bloody cold was well worth it.

Watched it all day on sky, was an advert after every race

And you didn't get to see any of the other stuff in between races like the F1 cars and TDi Le Man etc.

Wish i'd gone now, was ready to buy the tickets but bottled it

Cool pics BTW
