Very impressed by Ant Whorton-Eales - needs to stay in the BTCC.

Brilliant stuff by Sutton, Cook, Whorton-Eales and Ingram.

Tom Ingram on the podium from 27th.
Thompson in the points too, so looks like he's starting to gel with the CC. |

I swear to god, if BMR win this championship now, it'll be a joke.
Great race though, Cook was so unlucky the SC came out when it did, otherwise he might have had Sutton. Shoutout to Ant Whorton-Eales, that was a superb drive. |

Not really that fussed, but it was an oddly quick reaction. They clearly wanted the 2 lap sprint to the finish. -- That Black and White livery is awesome. I love that the driver suit is greyscale as well. |

Previous incidents, the cars drove away themselves. It was very obvious that Collard wasn't going to do the same.

If JPs car had been stranded and then hit by Collard or Jelley we would have had potentially serious injuries - or as turned out if AN Other had hit Collards stricken car. Safety car was the right call in my opinion. Any word from JP or BMR on that accident? Looked like a driver error to me but haven't seen any angles - only the in car footage. |

If Sutton does win it'll be a combination of his superb talent and all the good work done in 2016 by Turks, JP and the engineers at BMR. They had sussed the car by Oulton that year so know how to get it to work on the tracks we run from Oulton onwards (or most of them from Oulton onwards). They've still not cracked Donny or Thruxton, and I do wonder if CT had stayed for 2017 if he would have made the difference...

No Collard for R3.
Raining again - all Clios on wets. |

Subaru looking very second hand still... although I think the bits that matter are closer to being sorted.

WTF is a diamond double hour?
Why do they say it’s an hour race? At 1:56 a lap it’s going to be 40 minutes 🤨 |

For Cammish, he should realise that headlights on won’t make the car quicker. Alternator has to do more work!

It's a rare time when Matt Neal brings home the least damaged car!

Smiley is driving like an ass-hat. Why be so defensive with 10+ laps left?! Shortsighted.
