Keep these older races coming! Us fans need better access to the BTCC archives.
From the 2002 season review DVD. We need these on demand through a streaming service! So much content that people need to see.
These are available for download from Duke, but I realise that’s not quite the same or as convenient
@@itstimeforham I did download the 2004 season and tbh £6.99 for over 2 hours of viewing is not bad at all
Peak Yvan Muller that. The round prior to Donington, he took Thompson out of the race to keep himself in title contention and laughed it off post-race. Thompson gets his own back at the start of race 1, Muller starts giving it lip over the radio and gives a post-race presser complaining that he’s always racing fairly and others are crashing into him. Then he spends race 2 bouncing into the two egg:sport cars and eventually has to retire because of the damage he caused himself.
Ridiculously talented driver, one of the best the BTCC has ever seen in terms of raw talent, but Christ alive he was a knob.
He certainly was! Always whining....😂
Yeah... that radio whinge made me snort pretty loudly.
Yes exactly a French Knob at that
There are two drivers on that grid who are still racing in BTCC today...21 years later.
Tom Chilton was driving for Barwell Motorsport in his first season, aged 17 at the time.
Colin Turkington was driving for Team Atomic Kitten which was West Surrey Racing, where he has subsequently won four championships. He was 20 years of age during this season.
Sutton is much better than both
So is cook hill and Ingram
@@AZBCDEE Read it again, he did not allude to their driving prowess.
@@Kringlebeasttoday is proof as to who is much better
Turkington is a car merchant
Those hotwheels mgs are still my favourite livery in the championship
This is great! Please do more stuff like this. The btcc’s history is incredible
Proton Waja / Impian 🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾 represent 💪💪💪 🔥🔥🔥
More mid-to-late 90s content please
These cars look great. They look so light and agile, so sporty.
Sadly the last ever commentary for Will Hoy before his untimely death, and it was also the last ever BTCC race for Tim Harvey
Every race should be available like nascar is on RUclips
Now this is what I'm talking about classic full races being uploaded ! Please keep them coming ! :)
It was a classic, I see those Team MG/Hot Wheels MG are so amazing cars.
I was there with my son and we met James after the awards and got a picture of my son with him and his trophy, A nice fellow. Can I also mention Paul O'Neil, my son was after an autograph and Paul took time out from a beer with his mates to find a pen for the autograph, another decent chap. (nothing said about muller you notice lol)
Incredible stuff. Would love to see more of these. The V8 super car series released old race footage during covid whilst racing was suspended, be fantastic if there could be coverage from the late 90’s/early thousands, through to 2015ish
They coincided with some of the most dull and boring manufacturer models ever released unfortunately. There is absolutely nothing joyous about driving a road going Astra from that era and yet they dominated as soon as they hit the track.
@@TheElDoctoro24that’s the wonder of touring cars though. Seeing your shit box fly round a track
@@jamesshone1677 very true I bought an mg6 because of watching them in touring cars and without doubt the worst vehicle I have ever had the misfortune to daily
Vauxhall Astra ❤
So these are the dark days of BTCC? This was some fantastic racing! Keep the classic higlights coming please
It’s a shame the BTC regulations never really took off as the racing was always really exciting. But following on from the Super Touring regs was always going to be a tough act to follow.
Really enjoyed watching this! Love the older touring car generation so much! Especially super tourers!
Very early noughties seen as a lowpoint for the Championship. But it did produce some good rcing at times and I love the cars of the time
Love seeing this!
Wish BTCC did more heli/blimp cams. I think brands last year plus this race are the only two I can remember from the last 20ish years
Please Please Please can you keep these going and during the off season too especially with Ben Edwards commentating 🙏👍
Please keep uploading the older races!
Just the on-screen graphics alone are so extremely 2002 it hurts, LOL. Great action, though.
Thanks for sharing this! Love seeing these older races 😍
I have a total blank about this era of BTCC...
I had no idea Matt Neil ever drove an Astra... in my head he went straight from a Primera to a Civic.
So many legends. And Paul O'Neill.
FWIW My no-mark iRacer's view of Donington GP is that it's horrible. That extra loop completely ruins the rhythm of the lap compared to the National circuit.
I love the British Trouing cars Champship
Those 406 coupes were such good looking cars.
as was the peugoet 306 in the production class.
Iirc the design was originally offered to Ferrari but they rejected it and Peugeot picked it up. Pininfarina designed it as an entry level Ferrari but they rejected it and Peugeot snapped it up. It was a very good looking car, especially with the V6 variant.
We need more of this! So good! :)
Man I feel like I'm back to when I used to play Toca Race Driver
Wonderful. Great race, great drivers
Brilliant content, need more of these years on youtube!
COOL Thanks BTCC!!!
I remember being at this race, we were late to the track and I remember rushing down to the track! Good times
We want more! 😂
Wow the btcc are back to donington park Grand Prix circuit for the first time in 21 years
My favourite car is the Vauxhall Astra ❤
Loving the classic content!
More more more please
more older races please from 1990's - to today
Good stuff, more of this please.
o"neill legend
Mad to think Tom Chilton and Tim Harvey raced together.
Nice memories!
Sprint and feature races far more entertaining than todays BTCC.
Cry
Loved the styling of the cars from this era, it's hard to believe this was the worst era for BTCC. There were some great drivers and races. Probably too soon after the Mega super tourer era.
You’re just saying that because of nostalgia
Of course, ULEZ nd oher similar schemes re doing their best to wipe this generation of car from UK history
Could you upload some classic BTCC races please?
Tim Harvey last event in btcc and will hoy last commentor outing
The stance on that production BMW is ridiculous
Mandatory pitstops 😍
I won't be surprised if fans will go and sit on the bank at the GP loop this weekend.
Rs4 safety car ❤
Better than this season. 😶
