Smith may have ended his career though, what perspective team boss will sign him after that,
888 seemed happy to sign Neate...


(PS. Not comparing Smith with Cheate btw.)

Just to toss in my h'appenny's worth, in Race 1 even if Aron Smith had pulled off onto the grass, got out the car, put up a deck chair and had a kip, Plato would have got 13 points instead of 11. He lost the championship by 4 points - he still wouldn't have been champion. If he didn't have a couple of random punctures during the year he would have won. But then you could say the same about Shedden - if only his rear brake hadn't locked on in Race 2 he might have finished 7th say, instead of 20th. I thought it was all played very fair this year to be honest, with not many silly shenanigans between the title contenders.

Of course Plato v Shedden would be a moot point if Motorbase started the year...!

I know where I'd be taking my money if I was Smith...

Surely Smith would have slowed down and slotted in behind Turks ?
no idea what the points would have been.... really rather futile now....
