Driver of the Day - DTM Brands Hatch

[Hazard]

Driver of the day at Brands Hatch - another day where the crowd get very wet after the WTCC race earlier

Jean Alesi, for turning in to paddock far too late on most laps, putting on the edge of the marbles, and then slithering through the corner. Most entertaining.

Where's the tick box for Harry Heinz?

Or indeed Suzy Stoddart & Vaninia Ickx.

Yep, nice to see someone hustling a car round, mind you we were getting ready to catch him down at post 4a most laps, esp. when he passed HHF

It has to be Abt, top of 2005 class and great fighting spirit. Both Alesi and Margaritis did an excellent job as well, picking up the points when the works boys screwed up.

In a Derek Guyler voice.... Ohhh Yesss!

That was a bit of a pass was it not. I was sure it would end in tears, especially if Jean found the tyrewall or kitty litter (lots and lots of tears, helmet thrown across the pit garage, etc...)

I didn't see what happened to Miss Ickx, other than the aftermath of her car which had obviously been in some kitty litter somewhere (or parked in the car park).

I must admit he was certainly lining himself up for a parking spot with us.

I'm also trying to work out who you are as I was on 4a. I know that you are not Juliet Papa, found out earlier today who she was. I was the one with the bush hat and gravelled back from HHF and Abt.

Miss Ickx forgot to brake and turn the wheel on the entry to paddock. Parked it very nicely by the tyre wall without any damage, apart from half a ton of gravel.
