'All cars must carry an in-car camera or on-board camera during testing, Free Practice, Official Qualifying sessions and/or the Races at the request of the TV Production Company or the Administrator, and all cars must carry a Championship on-board Judicial camera.

Tordoff & Cammish top the practice sessions for Honda. Also a coming together between Jordan & Simpson in FP2.

Turkington on pole with full ballast. Great lap, but with Oulton as narrow as it is, we can guess who'll be winning races 1 and 2 tomorrow.... :/

At least he's my choice for pimmy's game!

I wonder if Jordan will be moaning about driving standards after FP2, I guess not.

So nice to finally get a qualifying session without a red flag for once

Great effort by both Colin and Sam, they were a bit ahead if everyone else. Notice OJ outqualified Sonic. Shocker for Cook, wonder what went wrong there

Sutton only 14th and Ginger only 22nd golden opportunity for Colin to make a really big championship lead

Colin starting first so without catastrophe he'll take the win. Tordoff from P2 seems a good chance for a podium but with his luck (the bad one) I doubt he'll finish inside top3 and Cammish usually goes down rather than up. On P4 we've got AJ so guess what - 1-2 for BMW!

I'm disappointed by Ash, I hoped he'd be higher. Jordan should be up to P2 in the championship after the weekend.

Is the ITV website meant to have a replay of qualifying viewable?

Hopefully it works OK! Pretty uneventful session though, very few late improvers.

I’m not surprised, The car with max ballast got pole!
Surely the BMW’s need pegging back a little more....

Bit of a freak lap. He was nowhere near that time at any stage before or after. Got tows in just the right places.

Did just win with full ballast though.

I'm a Turk fan, but I don't think the ballast is doing its job. Similar to the Subaru before it, if you're taking lights to flag wins with full ballast, then it might as well not be there.

I'm a bit surprised Jordan couldn't catch Cammish. But now he'll be lighter than the two ahead, starting P3 - win from Jordan in R2?

I'm thinking another Turk win, but Jordan second. Should be able to get Cammish into T1.

All depends on Turkington's start, because there's not too much of a chance to overtake after that around Oulton! Sadly, think it's pretty much guaranteed be a BMW win yet again...

Cammish was faster though. It's always easier if you're in 1st place to start with. The other BMW's which were lighter couldn't make any progress. Without the mega pole lap putting Turks out of where his 2nd lap would have put him (6th) it would have been a very different story.

All the social media is bleating on about the BMW's being too fast in a straight line but Turks was mid-table on all the speed traps.
