Seat (lack Of Data???)
During the coverage today a few times it was mentioned that Seat don't have much data with the new TDI to go on. I'm slightly confused - the WTCC Seat's are the same, aren't they? If so, why aren't they getting info off the WTCC team?
Anyway, as the season goes on I expect the Seats to get faster and faster, and be the best car by the end of the season.
Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

Fair point - I'd forgotten about the Dunlops.

Thruxton could be tough for them the extra weight on the front axle will put more pressure on the front tyres

The SEATs were pretty awesome on the straights. At circuits with long straights they will do exceedingly well.
Blackadder! Blackadder! With many a cunning plan,
Blackadder! Blackadder! You horrid little man.

They seem quick on the straights but one of the strengths of the old petrol leon was that it was light on tyres, maybe they have gone one step back and only gone one step forwards

Will be interesting as the season goes on because the extra weight could kill them even though the car has good torque.
Won't be too surprised if they blow a few LF tyres at Thruxton.The world according to Taki Inoue: https://mobile.twitter.com/takiinoue/st ... 7249326080
Turned out to be an interesting race. Glad I decided to watch it. Too bad Logan went out. At least it was from racing hard and not his own mistake.
