BTCC 2019 - Knockhill - Rounds 21, 22, 23

[Sodemo]

Sutton surely has his best chance of wins here.

[Pdh]

Forecast I’ve seen says it’s dry race day maybe a chance of some rain Saturday

[Jimmy Magnusson]

Does anyone know what the best way of getting to the circuit from Edinburgh on Sunday is? We were going to take the traon, but the first one doesn't leave until 11:55. We were thinking about being there sometime between 9 and 10.

[Robin Marriott]

Far far far to quick for the red flag call there, he was still moving.

He was, but I think it was more about the mess that was left than anything else.

Butcher has some super secret line ?




Jordan 3 places ahead of Turks

Well done Bushell, he really knows this circuit. AJ and Colin close, should make for an interesting race. Good to see Proctor up there too. Shame for Blundell, a few seconds more and there might not have been a red flag, unless it really was for the gravel

I wonder why both types of Hondas haven't been made to have the CoG of the worst FWD car, a ride height increase and lower boost yet. If the BMW or Subaru had repeated the results Honda have had the last few races everyone would be up in arms.

It’s not ALL of the Hondas. Simpson is generally nowhere and Norlin are usually quicker than Dynamics. It’s about doing a solid job

[Sodemo]

I missed quali and am trying to avoid the result. Is there any way I can watch it back? I’ve checked the ITV BTCC page but can’t seem to see it on there...?

Nor has it been all of the BMWs or all of the Subarus. I just find it odd that when a RWD does well its because its RWD, when a FWD does well its because of a great team effort.

Seems Cammish thinks of the championship now

It's only ever shown as a live web broadcast without repeats. They will do a run down of it at the start of tomorrows show.

Yes, exactly. I agree. Also I find it a bit strange that BMWs suddenly got this slower.

Someone one has to be at the front. Would you penalise every make of car that won more than a race until the whole field was 10 seconds a lap slower than the start of the season?

Subaru has a massive chassis advantage (if it's wet no-one will touch them) and the BMW's were clearly a step ahead. It's an entertainment series so they'll always peg cars that are winning too much back just as they have done with Honda and other FWD cars before.

[Matt K]

But Subaru's Knockhill glory days are over. And it's the case with all these 'RWD-friendly' tracks. Subaru wasn't able to excel anywhere this year and they've barely found podium this year. I wonder if it's case of boost and all that stuff or just lack of development.

[porsche962fan]

anyone noticed for the first time Senna outqualified Sutton ?

[Sodemo]

I’d like to know exactly how they have “hobbled” the BMWs. I’m sure the circumstances of which are surrounded by NDAs. It just stinks a little to me and smacks of championship manipulation.

[slummingangel]

Anybody have the television Race times for each of the BTCC races tomorrow?

The question is, will they miraculously reemerge as title favourites at Finale or will the title be handed to someone else?

[S griffin]

I wouldn’t say they’ve been hobbled, don’t forget they have more ballest than anyone else

[S griffin]

Well whatever happens it is sure to be close. I can't wait
