Looks like Gavs flying.. almost as fast as FRenault! What's the weather like down there? Are they running the snow tyres?

I reckon you'd better read those times again!

The FR's are doing 46 (FORTY SIX) second laps (their first qualifying was in not nice conditions!).

The fastest Touring Car lap is 48 seconds.

Ric Wood's ex-DTM Astra does 47's with ease.

In the dry (and warm), I expect Gav & the gang to be in the low 50's.

It's going to be interesting tomorrow. A hard frost is expected tonight, and some more snow.

So much for Global Warming!

Sorry Rob, I only looked at Q1 for the renaults... thought the close times were down to the snow!

They say "it was lovely weather for a sleigh ride together with you......."

Riding through the snow, on a one horse open pickup.......

OK, I'll get my coat!
