Yep, the Subaru's might have a big more luck and stability thanks to their longer wheelbase, however I think both teams will find tomorrow tough.

A big shame... I feel for Sutton and Hill. For Ash it could have been a breakthrough weekend and sort of turnaround.

so much for BMR doing well
JP is again no 1 driver at BMR starting from 16th I am totally perplexed how Matt Neal in a empty Civic couldn't be really faster than his fully loaded team mate should be a good fight between Austin, Goff, Moffat and Tingram, all very hungry for a win !! |

My understanding was that these cars are harder to drive than the previous spec cars involved in the BTCC? From what I've heard, there is quite a narrow operating window with regards to car setup so perhaps that is why the entire field is are now separated by a small chunk of time. |

The adoption of the redress rule is an interesting one. There aren't many severe penalties handed out for contact anyway, and it's a rule which can often cause more problems than it solves, as our friends Down Under will know!
Impressive times from Ingram and Shedden in particular, and it's great to see HARD doing well. Looking forward to the races! |

Linking to this it was interesting to hear Austin hint at 'interesting things behind the scenes' (or something like that) regarding manufacturer backing from Toyota during the interview with Paul O'Neill yesterday.
Feels like it's 2018 Silly Season already! |

Juniors race was chaos, and the Clios have just gone, erm, all Clio again. In a big way.
Hope it's not a sign of what's to come. |

I wonder if there be a bunch of people heading to Clark of course as people did not respect the no overtaking under yellow rule again

I wonder how much longer we got to wait before the OK to restart racing, I know now that was a bad crash and the helicopter is on the track, I also wonder what happens to all the racing that been on hold since then

The longer this goes on the more worried I'm getting about Monger. Really nasty looking accident.

What a race! And what a drive by Sutton! Absolutely impressive, thought he was going to get even second. What would have been if he had started from pole...
And Tingram impressive as well, actually I think he's among favourites to the title, I'm pretty convinced about it. And a big shame for Moffat... Weight did harm him so much and not necessarily lucky in this race... |

Well it is strange that Plato is nowhere comparing to Sutton but hopefully it will not harm young Ash, that would be just brainless...
Yeah, Cook did well while Motorbase is struggling like hell and actually both Davenport and Depper are not really perspective, I'm afraid. Would be cool to see Cook in Shredded Wheat alongside Jackson and some other exciting talented driver. |

Great BTCC race 2. Thoroughly enjoyed it, despite some odd camera work. Could Ingram realistically win the title now? |
