Nope, Buhk had a blown tire on the start straight and parked the car after the exit of T1 on drivers right. It seemed like a relatively ok spot to me but the race director threw in the SC! Pretty poor to blame that on the driver (although I guess he could have driven it a bit more up the road)...

Full race (including ridiculously long commercial breaks) is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=D7f-E0MvH7s

Damn, looks like he's suspended from all racing until there's been a hearing. Had a decent chance to win 2 Blancpain championships and GT Masters, that's over.

Nowhere to watch today's race in the UK. Online stream still geoblocked despite broadcasters BT Sport/ESPN not actually showing it today...or ever

Well in this instance, with an F1 weekend I am (mildly) interested in and other sport to watch, the geo-blocking isn't worth the time to circumvent. I have seen BT Sport show live BSS races, but that won't be happening anymore now that football is back.

If you want to watch, this place usually has reliable, if low quality and ad-infested streams.

Thanks for the link. I think I'll stick to F1 until Blancpain get a reliable broadcaster who will show every round, instead of picking and choosing what to show around the football.

Worst case scenario, I'll watch on YouTube later in the week, somebody usually uploads the races on there.

Does Tomas Enge hold a pilots license? Wow that was crazy how much air he got there and how many times the car rolled. Seems like he's ok.

Strange impact, when it rolled in real time it looked like slow motion. From both angles.

Really Mateusz Lisowski and Vincent Abril would have deserved the sit with Rast and Winkelhock, probably they would be leaders if the cars pairings were properly designed, alltough I imagine they don't pay the same as actual codrivers, epic the face of Vincent voose after Ide's spin.

Never thought the race at Slovakia to be so eventful, but just think about how many horrible rain have we seen at the venue this year. WTCC, red flagged. BSS, qualifying race, red flagged. What next?

According to the BES homepage he has won 6 days ago the World Championships of Para-Cycling :

http://www.paralympic.org/news/2014-...s-get-underway

Now he only needs a bit of luck on the Z4, even this must be considered formation period, probably he is the driver with less experience on GTs and sprints in the grid.

Awesome stuff by BMW and Roal, a man much deserving of such a tribute. As he said I really hope he doesn't put a scratch on it, it looks to good :lol:

2014 Blancpain Sprint Series

Max Buhks disciplinary ban has been dropped by the authorities so he will race with Max Gotz this weekend.

Interesting to see that Roman Rusinov has switched from WRT to Reiter and now we have an orange Lamborghini

At least 3 significant clashes between teammates this weekend, going to be some interesting meetings afterwards. Either HTP or WRT could have had 2 cars on the podium without their incidents. Keeps little the Grasser team in it.

In a way, am glad HTP won, though, since this keeps the 'overall' championship more interesting (Vanthoor has better teammates on the endurance side than Buhk). I do hope they change that point structure next year though, makes no sense for sprint weekends to be worth more than endurance, as it is, I don't think people are taking it seriously.
