It will be interesting to see if there is a BOP boost adjustment before tomorrow for Team BMR.
Will JP play the team game if he is leading and Sutton is in 2nd as they approach the hairpin on the last lap of the first race? |

That qualifying session was a hoot to watch - could barely keep up with it. Great stuff today, but the Scoobies are looking ominous.

Reading a JP interview on TCT sounds as though he intends getting out of Ashs way.
Still says his car is not right and that he feels he is on pole purely because of the weather and the timing of his run. So it could well be he falls back into the clutches of the BMWs. Guess it's wait and see... |

Should be some great races with some bigger names starting a little further back, provided there's no issues with driving standards...
Watch out for Collard in P4, and maybe Newsham for a R3 win. |

and first 2 rows are RWD so at least no FWD will lose places at start ...

RWD 1-2-3-4-5 despite ballast and they lap the midfield
a boost cut is required |

Good race that. Great drive through the field by Neil. Good run by Cole finally. Hopefully he can recreate that performance when his car doesn't have a huge advantage. Raise his stock a little.
BMR screwed up trying to give Sutton bonus points. Gap between the top 4 and the rest of the field is massive. Don't think putting some weight in those cars for race 2 is going to make much difference. |

Good racing, nice to see coverage of the battles lower down in the field too.
Drivers seem to be behaving themselves! Hopefully a bit of a shuffle in the top 4 for race 2 with Plato having full ballast. |

Don't expect the rain to come to anything. Should be brief and the majority will pass to the north.

Andrew Jordan ran into Matt Neal to start that one.
Edit: the view from Shedden was amusing. Jordan just piled into the back of Neal |

Yep, Jordan's mistake kicked that one off but it was quite a chain reaction. Jelley vs. Proctor looked like a heavy hit.

Lol Josh Price. "I'm a touring car driver! Bang bang!"
Car with the most ballast and on hard tyres does the fastest lap. Man what a terrible car! |

Almost felt like an F1 race at the front. The animals went two by two.

Rory Butcher on pole for race 3, lol. I can't see a win happening with all those RWD cars about but that's fun.

here the reason for the DQ, overtaking or not slowing down under yellows which is as we all know is a very major no no.

To add more to it, he not only overtook under yellow, he drove into the side of another car whilst doing it. Avoidable contact and passing under yellow. Pretty poor.

if RWD don't get a boost cut , Shedden has no chance for the title and all the other FWD runners are out of the challange
