As an aside Charlie Eastwood pulled a pretty poor move on Dan Cammish in the PCCGB. It was potentially very dangerous and, given the quality of the battle between Eastwood, Cammish, Zamparelli and Oliphant totally ruined the race. I've had a look online and Eastwood has been docked three points, and handed a 10 place grid penalty. I know GT racing is different, but some stricter rules like that might avoid some of the stupid bumping and barging we saw today.
Good weekend for Subaru and BMW though, whilst Rory Butcher and Dave Newsham both did themselves proud on their home circuits. The Honda's were the pick of the FWD cars, but the conditions simply didn't suit them today. Morgan has had a season to forget, and things didn't get any better today, whilst the Hard VWs also struggled (as per) with the twisty nature of the circuit.

I don't think we can underestimate Ingrim either. He managed to gap the Honda after every safety car. He did very very well.
