Well done Jack! Didn’t know he had a brother.

if rain didn't come it would have been Tingram double champion

I was not expecting that, I thought the BMWs were out of it with the weather conditions before the start.

Great season by Jake & WSR AND Tom & Excelr8

I did not expect Hill to win the title, thought Ingram had it as good as wrapped up with his pace today.

Well deserved championship win for Hill. I loved the genuine congratulations from Ingram, Sutton and Turkington at the end.

Was a shame that Sutton got bonked out of race 1, but even he was fairly pragmatic about it afterwards.

That Hyundai was just so unbelievably slow. If it'd stayed dry, I'd say Tom would've won. But in wet the car looked like not functioning at all whereas Hill's BMW was very fast.
Well done for Jake, he matured a lot this year and was very very strong, have actually tipped him to be the champ this year for most of the year.
Whoever wins, I love BTCC season finales, there's something amazing about the atmosphere, so glorious. I'm personally happy to see Ash win the race. Hope they can regain their mojo in 2025. For now, time for Hill to enjoy it, suspect it might not be the last time he wins the title. Can't help but feel gutted for Tingram, it all seemed to point in his direction for most of the day but he was on the back foot ever since the clash with Sutton and Cook.
As much as this was a really frustrating season for me because of the way the year went for Sutton, from the perspective of motorsport &BTCC fan, this was a hugely enjoyable season. Can't wait for the next one already. BTCC is being annoying at times but a bit addictive

Agreed, he deserved it, has worked hard for it and I’m glad it came down to a straight fight in the very last race.

In terms of rollercoaster seasons yeah you take the trophy with that!!! Hopefully he's back with a properly funded title push , ironically that Snett P2 might have just helped Jake over the line

To be entirely fair, it was Cook, possibly attempting to brake extremely late, too fiercely considering that he had coolish brakes and cold tyres, who slammed into Sutton and knocking him into Ingram, and causing mayhem.

As for Sutton's year, taking into consideration how relatively poor it has been to past years, he still went into today with an outside chance of taking the championship if all his stars aligned with Hill and Ingram having problems. At least he went out with a high on the last race.

Always nice to see a new 1st time champion.

On the whole a decent season and nice to see the championship decided on the very last race.

[SR18]

I've never seen Turkington defending Like he did in Race 1
