Top Gear was rubbish tonight, continuing its downward spiral with cheap gimmicks and no actual car interest at all. Ok the Huaya piece was good actually learnt something there, the ‘P45′ made me lose interest big time tho, i mean car enthusiasts really care about a one off car that just pisses people of.

Rant Over :P

@olliekart Sadly I have to agree with you, disappointing after the long wait.

Only 15th in quali, oh dear :(

I love the funny bits on Top Gear, it’s entertaining :P The Pagani was truly incredible though.

Pole Position Shootout
The McLaren once again topped qualifying, this time with William Ingram, as Alfie Widger struggled for balance on the softer compound, in comparison to Q1. Jamie Franklin finished the session in second, with Jackie Chan and Bradley Downton completing row two.
Red Bull had a difficult session, still struggling with the development of the car since their wins early in the season, as Caterham continue to prove their pace, with d’Hazorme finishing 10th. The team suggested that they have high hopes for the race.

Yes we do, though I had hoped for a little more than 10th place. Gonna need an epic crash in front of me again ;)

@olliekart – Nah, I couldn’t stop watching it :P

Aww crap, power steering issues. It’s gonna be hard to get points from the 11th row (or is it 10th?)

@brazil2007 My real-life name is Juho Nykänen… Up to you to decide if it’s cool or not (I want to keep my racing name as it is though, Butch Coolidge has more marketing value)
