ganda123 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid

I have 2 choices, Rickard Rydell and James Thompson.
Rydell because he's having a really bad patch and is seeing the championship slip away through no fault of his own. A brake problem and a crash at Oulton, and a disqualification and a black flag at Silverstone after looking so promising in qualifying. Points lost for silly reasons and not driver error.
Thompson becuase he missed a few races (I know it was his fault he crashed but still it must have been frustrating for him) and now possibly he is missing Croft due to a burnt leg sustained at his DTM debut. He had double vision and real pain by the end of the race, you can read about it more at http://www.autosport.com if you haven't already.

Neither - Ford are constantly cheating, and Thompson is a pillock who brings it all on himself. I'd have to say it was Pluto for signing on with Team Muller...

I've got to say I think Thompson is a complete prat, so I can't feel sorry for him!
I'd go for Plato for having to put up with team orders from Vauxhall.

Yeah, that's what I thought after I posted first actually, Plato has been unfortunate. I remember at Thruxton, he was the class of the field, just inspiring. And to be made to let Muller go through in the feature was unfair, as much as I like Muller. He just wasn't as good on the day, that victory was JP's.

Without doubt, the unluckiest man in the BTCC is anyone who has paid top dollar for a '99 Super Tourer, as next year it will be worth diddly squat........

Actually, maybe not!! If the expanded ESTC goes ahead, they may be able to sell the car for more since it is still so competitive?

Ditto on Plato. First to that "oaf" Menu and now, undeservedly, to Muller...always #2

-Oh you are the optimist aren't you kmchow
They could also sell them to Australia...where along with the rest of the super touring field will be absorbed into sport sedans...
