Not surprising as the V-8s make the F1 guys look bad!

Good if you ask me. It was a terrible event and terrible to watch.

I enjoy seeing the F1 run around these big F1 tracks, but not in the style the V8's did this year.

Gutted....already arranged my trip to Abu Dhabi for the grand Prix & I was really looking forward to the great racing, and great sounds of the Aussie V8's
Bring on a UK round!!

Great news.

With Tracks like Bathurst to race on why the hell would they want to fly around the world to a track like Abu Dabi.

If they are going to all that effort they should be at Brands Hatch or some great track.

Harold in terms of agreement with the FIA V8 Supercars are not entitled to enter the Europe Zone which includes the U.K.

We are limited to Asia.UAE,New Zealand and other specific sites outside Europe which includes the U.S.A..

We will be at Austin this year.

Yas Marina was a farce last year due to the intervention of Bernie who does not wish Touring Cars
associated with F1 or any form of Open Wheel Racing except if it happens to be a Porsche

Wel, that' not surprising. In V*'s, we can see some good and proper overtaking without the use of artifical aids such as DRS, and also tyres that actually last

Aussie V8 supercars are a great spectacle and the competitors are very professional. Would love to go to Bathurst. Wonderful sounds with great racing.
