comet49 Posted June 20, 2021 Report Share Posted June 20, 2021 (edited) Followed the qualifier on updates, well done Dan, pity Rasmus and Charles couldn’t get through too. I’ve read that the stream isn’t reliable Edited June 20, 2021 by comet49 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geoff100 Posted June 20, 2021 Report Share Posted June 20, 2021 At the track the stream is 30 seconds behind the live action, spoke to both max and nigel before the action both had nice things to say about workington, and have to say what a good night good racing and fantastic stadium now and the boss " gerry" always has time to have a chat i wish he just lived in workington. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
