lol, talk about be rather critical lol

if he had been on a circuit he would have just gone straight on and then come back on, theres just zero run off. how many times do F1, touring car, GT etc drivers lock up?

Any decent driver should adjust their driving style to suit the hill climbs etc. He obviously didn't!

I don't think I will get involved in hill climbs just for that fact, I'm too gun - ho when it comes to this and I like my run off lol

Interestingly the GTR race car got a little out of shape at the same corner during the timed runs up the hill

Not as much as Chris Hoy though who seemed to start having his accident on the first corner

looks like all the electronic gubbins had been switched off from the first corner fidget...he has been racing a while and is a massive petrolhead but looks like red mist descended. My bro-in-law is out for a ride with him this week, I'll ask for a comment

was at molecombe for a while but missed this, was waiting at the top to photo them all and stood waiting while they cleared the track got bored and watched some rallying instead.
Small tip for Goodwood get the tractor trailer going up to the rally stage NOT coming down like we did!!!
