Been watching a bit of the qualifying and practise runs on a newish sports channel here in Oz. I don't know much about the racing yet, but they bottom those suspensions out at frightening speeds. They had some Formula 2 sidecars (600cc) on last night, they look very scary and very hard work on the bumpy public road surface.:applause:
 
there was a video game that came out for it, which I rented and never returned, and that has to be the scariest form of motorsport today. I didn't come close to the track record, but scared myself a good amount the entire time. I wish it was on over here.

I hope OneHD cover it properly.
Those F2 chairs are very entertaining and quite popular out here in the racing we never get to see via TV.
I guess they squirm around at the IOM because they are shorter and lighter than the unlimited outfits.
FWIW, just after WW2 the BRDC ran several car events on Jersey and the IOM, what a shame we can't see that today.
