How much of the 'RWD advantage' was down to the heat? The FWD cars would presumably have been working their front tyres a lot harderand with the extreme heat maybe that lead to the problems? Also the engine failures (again heat related?) seem to have struck potential front running FWD cars.
I suspect as we get to the later rounds (Brands in November
) you'll see the pendulum swing the other way and the FWD cars have the advantage as the RWD can't get the fronts warmed up.
All supposition of course but this is the BTCC so you can be sure something will happen to keep it close (the hand of Gow).
