Feel gutted for Sam, it would have been nice to see a new winner. The BMW just doesn't have the pace at certain circuits and Brands GP is one of them. I knew from the start that it was always going to be an uphill struggle for Tordoff, because the car just isn't the class of the field in terms of speed. I think Tordoff tried to win it by letting everyone else spin off around him, kinda how Alain Prost is amusingly said to have won his races / titles.
I guess Dick Bennetts has to go back to Alan Gow now with his begging bowl and see if he can get some of the sanctions lifted that was imposed on the cars after the 2014 season.
