World Touring Car Championship
Am I just an old fart, or is this really shit? I mean, two 9 lap races at Monza for the opening round! The last WTCC in 1987 had 500km races with pit stops, two drivers and was a much greater test of driver. 1987 and only WTCC champion Roberto Ravaglia must be wishing he was still driving. How will this years champion be able to mention himself in the same breath as the great "Bob Ravioli" is beyond me.
For a look back at the original (and for me only) WTCC have a gander at Frank de Jong's website and marvel at the photo on the opening page. This site is a history of the European Touring Car Championship during its heyday and brings back so many memories for an old fart like me!
