The track dips towards the pit wall for the first few rows, it is a standard occurance for the fwd cars to head towards pitwall at the start due to torque steer.

Olie seemed very exitied in interview , his first podium ?

Turks for race 2 win ? front row start and less weight

There are plenty of 'way younger' drivers on the grid who's results are no better...

Matt K · 9 Aug 2020, 10:55 (Ref:3993961)

And I'm saying about those better young drivers

He's only lost 6kg, that won't make a great deal of difference. Ash looked a lot more conservative in that race, he will have lost 18kg, he could be a formidable threat to the 5 cars in front of him on the grid.

5th to 2nd in R1. It doesn't need to make a great deal of difference.
Cammish is also carrying more ballast now so the swing in weight is more than 6kg.

Would it be anyone other than Henry who replaces him though? Who I'm not sure races all that much. (TCT and a few TCR enduros?)

First on merit, he also got 3rd on the wet/dry race at Brands in 2018.

And yeah I reckon Turks will win this one, shame Ingram doesn't seem to have the pace to challenge them so far.

Just because one has gained 6kg and the other has lost 6kg, it doesn't add upto a 12kg difference. Cammishes car will be no worse off for 6kg and Turkingtons will be no better off for losing 6kg.

Sorry for a slight offtop but listening to Andrew Jordan claiming he's not missing BTCC at all I can't help but wonder is it really how he feels or he's just having a 'fake it until you make it' attitude.

fergus_r · 9 Aug 2020, 12:35 (Ref:3993992)

The BTCC isn't the be all and end all. I think it's perfectly reasonable for somebody to not want to race in a part-year and save their money for a future, longer campaign. I also think it's perfectly reasonable for somebody to enjoy other racing than the BTCC. Jordan has always raced other stuff- rallycross, historics (with their own team) and enjoys it all, plus with less pressure, why wouldn't he enjoy it? Especially in a year like this.

Evantra · 9 Aug 2020, 12:49 (Ref:3993994)

I assume it's a lack of marshalls that are causing these overly long safety car periods?

medius · 9 Aug 2020, 12:51 (Ref:3993995)

Another lengthy safety car period. A product of social distancing measures? No criticism of Marshals.

edit-- great minds think alike.

porsche962fan · 9 Aug 2020, 12:51 (Ref:3993996)

the fragile toe linkage strikes again ...

Evantra · 9 Aug 2020, 12:57 (Ref:3993999)

Neate P13 😂

Hamilton we be in the points at this rate...

Evantra · 9 Aug 2020, 13:04 (Ref:3994001)

Osborne is the only Honda that's going to finish!

Gornall P10!

porsche962fan · 9 Aug 2020, 13:10 (Ref:3994003)

what a disaster for Cammish

CarfanLUFC · 9 Aug 2020, 13:10 (Ref:3994004)

What a terrible set of results for the FK8.

The Ford's look very good this weekend.

Thought that was a great race

Evantra · 9 Aug 2020, 13:11 (Ref:3994006)

Just doesn't look like Ingram has the pace to beat Turkington this year.

Matt K · 9 Aug 2020, 13:12 (Ref:3994007)

What a race for Butcher!! These Fords are lightning fast!

Tingram is now 2nd in the standings

Matt K · 9 Aug 2020, 13:16 (Ref:3994016)

Distaster for Cammish, quite a shame, actually his pace with full weight onboard was impressive.
And Infiniti is on the podium, Sutton's car looked way more stable than yesterday so probably they mastered some setup issues.

But hasn't been able to match Turks in any of the races so far, annoyingly!

Turkington and Cammish are both very great drivers, but honestly (imo) one's very boring and the other very arrogant and it does look like it'll those two fighting for the title all year.

Evantra · 9 Aug 2020, 13:20 (Ref:3994022)

Aww how close we were to seeing Andy Neate on pole 😂
