They really should scrap Valencia asap. It is and always will be an utter crapfest! As I've said before it's like a crapped down Monaco, boring race, but zero glamour.

Yeh, they need to get rid of Valencia, if it is still boring in this season then it has nothing going for it. It is just awful.

And I thought it was jetlag; clearly it was the race itself.

Free practise only (cheapskate) but can't wait to hear those engines screaming for real!

1973 British GP on ESPN Classic right now. Silverstone doesn't half look different ...
