So only 3 days to go before Brands Hatch GP biggrin

Looking at the championship, I'm fully expecting it to come down to Race 3. I'd love to see Sam win, but I'm going to stick my neck out and say that it'll be Gordon Shedden winning as he seems really fired up. At least the weather forecast is looking dry!

Anyone but the Hondas
yep.....anyone but them
Why the Honda hate?, Neal yes but I've thought sheddons drove quite clean this year
My exact thoughts as well, some of the Gordon Shedden's driving this year has been amazing.

Equally, I think Sam Tordoff and Mat Jackson would be deserving championship winners.

As per the comments above, I got the feeling Sam just didn't want enough. He's driven well all year and perhaps his car was off the pace today, but you couldn't argue with Gordon's fighting spirit and ultimately I thought he really deserved the championship. The moves on Cook and Tordoff in Race 3 were sheer class.

Matt Neal....maybe karma caught up with him, but I'm really relieved he wasn't hurt.

I know BTCC gets some (deserved at times) stick for driving standards but I've really enjoyed this season, it's been full of drama and very entertaining. Roll on next year biggrin
