come on Matt! shovel Plato off.

 

[Trebor901]

Plato's an idiot, he's just backing himself and Matt into Johnny Adam who will just barge his way through.

 

[Hannu Karesola]

Colin and Jason! :Banane09:

 

[Steven Palmer]

Hehe, wiley old Plato knows exactly what's what, corker of a battle between the two old rivals. Grid draw for the last race looks interesting :victory:

 

[Jon Trotter]

I'm surprised Neal and Plato both finished, both me and my brother expected Neal to take a lunge and for it to get messier than it did, but I'm pleased Plato held on.

The Vauxhalls should be slowed down by the ballast for the last race, and Plato will have 36 kilos of ballast again, so I think that Adam will probably win, but Turkington should have a decent shot at the podium again.

 

[Trebor901]

Matt Neal has said he's not gonna try anything stupid this year because he wants to win the title. So i wasnt surprised they both finished, good racing between them in the end.

Andy Jordan will have no ballast and neither will Thompson, well not as much as Johnathan Adam

[Dave Gardner]

man they were lucky to get out of that with what they did.

incredible strength in those roll cages.

 

[Matt Crouch]

It's funny how different it sounds from the crowd perspective compared to the tv footage

shows how much safer racing is than it used to be though

 

[Nick Deeley]

Ouch, that was one big crash.

I was standing outside of turn 1 and saw (and heard!) it happen. Apparently 120mph onto the drivers side door. Caused a lengthy delay in the procedings.

Will stick some photos up from today that i took in due course.

 

[Adam Vaughan]

I was saying on TS how good those cars are, told you so. That 1 in front in the black car is leaps above the rest. Cant remember his name but hes 1 to look out for.

 

[Trebor901]

Carl Breeze is one of the best drivers ive seen for ages, really good and always in the top 5 in whatever he drives.
