Invader should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
All that time Renault made JP play second fiddle to the Swiss oaf and now Vauxhall tell Jase to move over for the Iceman....what a strange decision considering the points situation.
Has natural selection made Muller No.1 at Vauxhall?

What did he expect? Muller was the existing driver, and is considered one of the hottest properties in touring car racing.

Radermecker was signed as a clear no. 3 that leaves Plato in the middle!

I know Plato has won a race (I was there!) this year, but I suspect Vauxhall feel that their best chances lay with Muller, for a sustained championship campaign.

Radermecker deserves better, he's actually a really good driver (better than Plato potato in my opinion) but you wouldn't think so as he's No 3 in the Vauxhall camp. Shame really, I hope he can manage a win this season. C'mon Vince!
Muller does deserve to be the top driver, though. I'm not going to bother saying anything about his car control as it's just outstanding, and he's a quick driver too. And I'd much rather he won it than Menu, who I can't stand.

I think Vauxhall was taking the opportunity to keep 2 drivers up the championship rather than one outright leader and another possibly unable to catch up.

Poor Jason is right! 9Ok, biased fan talking here). Team orders oir not, it stinks to have that happen. And Muller may be the vet of the team (and his infamous car control), but Plato has more experience and more wins under his belt, plus has ben in a pts battle before. He really should be the team leader, imho, but if he isn't, there shouldn't be any team orders per se, aside from not wrecking each other and letting a faste teammate through. But I think you have to grant at least the fact Plato and Muller are pretty equally capable of winning the championship, I hate to see Jason play 2nd fiddle again.
