Further to this, O'Neill seemed to go out of his was earlier this morning to say that Sutton and Moffat are really good friends and had a good relationship. Would seem to be borne out by Sutton being able to take 4th spot from Moffat almost on the line in Race 2. |

If you watched the replay, you will see that Sheddon's front wheels were alongside the front door of Edwards' car but she just closed the gap. Sheddon had not choice but to take to the grass on the inside of the corner whilst Edwards continued to turn in to him, and it was at that point that they touched. I'm sorry, but, in my opinion, that was down to Edwards and very poor situation awareness. |

Interesting to see Jordan in the hybrid car claimed fastest lap overall in race 2. I know he is invisible regarding the results but it does show the cars should be faster next year.

Again the rules proving to be BS. Firstly with passing under yellow flags today and now disqualifying Cook for a ride height infringement which was clearly a splitter that was battered by his trip across the grass. So much the past few seasons has made me question whether I even enjoy watching btcc at the moment and the past 2 seasons I really haven't because of stupid decisions made by stewards.

But how exactly does a broken splitter equate to ride height infringement its ridiculous. They need a new set of stewards in this series

I watched the Butcher/Ingram overtake. Having been on the same flag point on many occasions, he passed Ingram before the flag - and if he hadn't, the observer/post chief there would have reported it.
Reports on overtakes under yellow are most often treated as a simple slam dunk. They either are in the yellow flag zone or they're not, and my experience of that bit of track tells me that they weren't until immediately after the overtake. Prime cheeky pass, IMO. |

This F4 race has been crazy, so much contact. Cars look decent without a rear wing tho..

Idiot in the team clothing in the paddock, on the phone, wandering around behind O'Neill in the studio. You knew the "Hello Mum, I'm on the telly" wave was coming.
A fine example of why some people shouldn't be allowed in the paddock. |

BTC Racing will have to appeal to Motorsport UK against the finding of the eligibility scrutineer, who is deemed a judge of fact.
I understand they cannot appeal the finding of the judge of fact but show that damage caused the failure and because of that the penalty is excessive. I doubt the appeal (if it goes ahead) will be heard by Motorsport UK before the end of the BTCC season. https://www.barc.net/wp-content/uplo...BTC-Racing.pdf |
