Brilliant...Just love Spa...The one track I will go around before I die...Look at how twitchy the car is and the control from the driver...Proper driving.

Seen the 2nd one before...Bet he wishes he had stayed home.

Hi CP, I'm not sure that got me in the mood for Llandow! I think is scared the bejesus out of me. I don't think there was any point that his steering wheel was pointing in the same direction as the track!

Noooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo Emtee....................if the track is dry these cars have huge grip...most never get near the let go point, but when wet, its not far from driving on ice......you'll be fine!

Last year it was wet in the morning and raining.....OK pissing it down and there was no accidents..Rain is good as you tyres don't take such a battering.

Don't blame you - that fella rubbing the side of his spyder down the crash barrier would make me drive at 30 with my hands at 10 to 2 if I were going to Llandow!

I think his NS front wheels went over the white track edge and straight into soft grass and mud and acted like a chanel directing him towards the barrier.
It was unfortunate but sadly got too close to the edge in wet conditions.
He was about to speak so a momentary lapse in concentration as well...
