I think the racing has been good the last few years but this year was poor, very hard to overtake after lap 1. Not that bothered about pre event entertainment myself
I guess it will be 3 groups, one group will only have 3 teams in it, the winner of each group will proceed to the semi as will the highest second place team(based on average points scored). Although all the teams are included I am not a fan of the format, I don't think teams get enough rides.
