Don't think Hill will be keeping the race win if he gets it.

I’m not a huge fan of penalties but I’m not sure that was acceptable by Hill

As much as I like Jake Hill, I feel that was a total cheap shot. Heavily doubt he'll keep the win.

Looks to me like Hill just misjudged the gap, it was a tiny little touch.

Maybe - Jelley's looking pretty racy as well! Fingers crossed for Rory though

Hopefully Hill will avoid Neal's front bumper and get a good finish in this one.

At least Hawkey won her class!


The over the top telling us how fantastically well Jade Edwards is doing every time ITV commentators catch her on screen during a race is what comes across patronising. Hawkey was asked 1 question for winning her class, if Jade got a 3rd place (assume as nobody else finishes) ITV would probably give her an hour long special

I'd rather Butcher won that race on track not because of penalty again. He's got some time left

I'm almost certain Jake won't keep this victory. I'd like to celebrate with him (he seems convinced he's got it) but the tangle with Neal was a poor one and I'd be surprised if he keeps that win. He defended from Neal aggressively but actually somehow I expected it to end this way.

She finished 9th in a single make race. The classes have been fabricated out of nothing. I don't acknowledge them.

I fully expect Hill to be penalised for that move, not that I have any sympathy for Neal.

Actually feel a bit sorry for Matt for once. He wasn't being overly aggressive with Jake and gave him a lot more room than he was given back. Shame, as I very much agree with you that I should be celebrating with him & Simon...

checked and last BTCC win for Jelley was Rockingham 2009 so it would be 10 years in the making if he inherits it !!

Nah. Dennis Leech went nearly 18 years between wins.

The strangest of the feelings is I've never really liked Neal whereas here I feel Hill raced him unfairly. Although I've just seen his post-race reaction towards Jake and, even though his anger is understood, it was a bit lack of class on his behalf.

I'm sure she'll be gutted that you don't acknowledge the classes...

I for one hope that Jake keeps the win. I know you can't really compare incidents but it was nothing compared to sheddon's assault on cook 2 years ago and sheddon kept the win.

Not really a surprise though, is it? The Neals don't have an ounce of class about them.
