Matt Neal with low ballast to qualify well and then 'play the team game'? Yeh, go on then.

The thing is, realistically what could TOCA or the stewards do if Neal were to torpedo Turkington or Jordan out of the race? The worst that would happen is that Neal would get points or a grid penalty. Nothing would happen to Dynamics or Cammish.

Not being funny people can think what they want about Matt Neal but dont think he would do that he didnt do it with Shedden when he went for his titles so why would he do it now?

I'm supporting Turks, purely for the sake of equaling Rouse's record, Cammish's got at least another 2 years to strike lucky and AJ has dropped too many plates for my liking. I understand this season's obviously been very stressful for AJ since it may be his last but his attitude both on and off the track, there's no call for it, plus I think he blew it big time at Silverstone so it's between Turks and Cammish as far as I'm concerned.

Having read and listened to Dick I'm reading it that:
AJ is (maybe already has had) going to receive a stern talking too That even if he did find a sugar daddy Dick is probably not interested in having him around anymore. I think Dick is totally straight so I can't imagine for one minute Colin will have a "better" car than AJ at Brands. But even so, I'm thinking it's between Colin and Dan. |

AJ has admitted he is going for it more now that he unlikely to be back. So it will be very interesting this weekend

Was literally just reading the article where Jordan 'broke the rules' of WSR by fighting with a faster car (Turks). Agreed that he knows he's not going to be in a BMW next year so isn't afraid to **** anyone off I the last few races... definitely going to be very interesting at Brands!

If that article is accurate it wouldn't surprise me if Jordan got replaced or something before the weekend. It sounds like the relationship has really soured. Of course that would be a monumental thing to do and its very unlikely, but strange things do happen.

it would be terrible PR if Dick kicks AJ before final round if Dick doesn't want AJ to win there are more subtle ways like putting deliberately bad setup on the car |

It would clearly show that no driver is bigger than the team, and that egos get you nowhere at WSR. It might make for a difficult few days, but the long-term gain may be worth it? |

This really is a non-issue. The two raced hard and neither took each other out. It’s a click bait article that lacks the balance of the original article in the printed magazine.
Dick has been at this a very long time - he's not naive enough to think that one of his drivers will hop out of the way for the other when both are in the hunt for the championship. The golden rule is they do not take each other out and they didn’t. Relationships are no more strained than you would expect with two drivers in the same team with a chance at winning the championship. Always difficult to manage but a nice problem to have. |

Colin and AJ touched a bit in race 3 and that's about it , it's not like they had a DNF |
