Great finish, much better than just smashing each other into the scenery.

Any reason given?

The medical team have ruled him out, too tired after race two.

Big shame, but very understandable. Some sports have a 24 hour rule stopping people competing after a concussion, so you could say he was lucky to be able to race at all today.

Indeed, I was surprised he started at all.

He looked quite poorly earlier on.

That was the best race of the season so far IMO, shame Gio was pushed off on the last lap though.

Gutted we couldn't be there this weekend just for the sake of race 3. Echo above though, was really rooting for Gio frown

Think Neil and Turkington will be getting penalised.

I`m sure when Plato made the move past Turkington on Race 3, he nudges Turks out of the way at Agostini too.

Far too many bump-to-pass and the commentators saying "this is brilliant, great racing." No, it`s not if you push someone off the circuit to pass !!

To be fair, a lot of it was clean and really close, but the odd moment spoiled it.

3 good races today. Some proper touring car racing.

Looked like a few people jumped the start of Race 3 (the cars moved before the lights shown the top left corner on the TV picture went out).

Future grid penalties and points galore dished out after Snett, but no result-changing penalties.

And 8 place drop for Turkington at Knockhill.

Turkingtons first penalty of the year and he gets an 8 place drop for at best a clumsy misjudgment, yet nothing for Neal punting a very fast Morgan wide and ruining his race?

Has Plato been giving out the penalties?

They all went before the red shown on the TV in all the races, I don't think the TV pictures of those reds are synced properly.
