Managed to get a bit more time on the software today:

Once the field got through the first corner, Jelley appeared to suffer some issues with his car. Running slowly for short time, he was at the back of the pack by the end of the sector.
Morgan, Osborne and Thompson all had a bit of a coming together but seem to have come out of it unscathed.
Through Sector Two, Chilton has contact with Gornall, and as a result loses out to Turkington who sneaks past. Cook and Proctor both leave the track momentarily and slip back slightly.
Boardley makes a bold move on Jordan, but comes off worse and drops two places.
At the end of the lap M.Jackson gets past Crees into 24th.
At the end of lap one, the running sees Oliphant in first place, Morgan second and Neal third.
Goff is running well in fourth, Plato fifth Ingram rounds out the front six.
Jelley is at the rear following his early problems, ahead of Thompson and Rowbottom.

Into lap two and Boardley passes Smiley into the first turn, and the rest of the field start to settle into position.
Through the second sector, Butcher gets past Hamilton with no changes through the field in sector three.
Lap three starts without incident, before Goff and Bushell look to have almost identical incidents in the second sector. Goff drops to fifth behind Plato, and Bushell drops to twenty-first behind Gornall.
The field gets really shaken up in the third sector though. Thompson loses pace dramatically and pulls in at the end of the lap to park the car with a terminal failure. Goff and Bushell drop another place each, as well as Gornall and Neate. Turkington take advantage and moves up into 20th.
Oliphant leads Morgan and Neal over the line, with Plato following closely. Thompson’s retirement sees Osborne ahead of Rowbottom and Jelley at the back of pack.
Cammish sets a blistering lap time, that looks tricky to beat.
Lap four sees Bushell, Smiley, O.Jackson and Proctor all lose places in sector 2. Hill, Chilton, Cammish and Turkington continue to make progress.
Towards the end of the lap, a coming together between Osborne and Crees sees the latter off into the barrier. The car is quickly moved out of the way, but Crees’ race is over.
Turkington gets past Hamilton comfortably at the start of Lap five, before Boardley makes a move on Sutton that goes wrong. A bold move, Boardley loses out and drops to 11th, with Hill pouncing to move up into the top ten.
Recovering from his contact, Sutton almost takes out his team-mate Moffat, but fortunately they both continue, and as they settle down Moffat is in 8th, Hill 9th and Sutton 10th.
O.Jackson’s race is over though, as he pulls into the pits and retires the car with engine problems.
Hill gets past Moffat early in lap 6 and Chilton moves past Gornall early in the lap, and Hamilton in sector 3 to cross the line in 19th.
Turkington still sits outside the points in 15th, with no change at the front or back of the field.
In lap 7, Hill goes wide and Moffat and Sutton, running together, both get past. Neate gets past Proctor into 14th.
Boardley continues his incident-packed run and makes contact with Hill as he returns to the track, losing three places as Smiley, Neate and Cammish all pass by.
Turkington continues to make steady process at the end of the lap, and passes Butcher into 17th.

The ongoing battle between Hill, Sutton and Moffat continues into Lap 8, with Hill getting between the two Q50s. Moffat moves forward though and then passes Goff for 7th place.
Hill follows Moffat past in the last sector and Jelley moves off the back of the field passing Rowbottom.
Lap 9 passes with no change for position, with Hill continuing to push Moffat throughout.
Hill takes his chance in Lap 10 getting by Moffat, and towards the end of the lap the i30 shows a good turn of pace passing Cammish over the line for 11th place.
Into Lap 11, Neal gets past Morgan for 2nd place and Chilton moves past Butcher to follow Turkington for a few corners. Gornall makes an error, and Hamilton passes him for 20th.
Gornall continues to struggle, having picked up debris on his tyres. A few cars pass him by in sector three, Proctor also has a coming together with Cook with Turkington and Chilton both benefiting.
Turkington now sits in 16th, and close to the points.
