One of the few race series that is actually FUN to watch and they all race hard and clean. Unlike some of the series here in the U.S. (or even England such as BTCC).

That was clean? I didn't realize it was considered kosher to bump someone's car as they're exiting a turn, especially from the side a la the PIT maneuver. I'm impressed by Mr. Whinship for keeping control of his car and holding the lead through all those shenanigans.

I didn't watch this particular race but I did watch some of this series first time ever this year and for the most part there wasn't any of those type of manuevers (i.e Pit). I know in DTM and BTCC are notorious for that.
