Budget was in place last year for the Alfa and at least HMS own everything they have!

So is it the driver or car that’s not fast enough then?

His supporters were dancing again at the top of bank near the complex

And looking like complete loons as per usual. I don't know if that's good or bad though!

First trip to Thruxton in a few years. It was a bit like Germans put towels down on sun longuers first thing. Lots of people putting chairs down by the complex then wandering off. Never seen it so busy.

Great day, maybe not as much action as I hoped, but seeing Jack Goff flying through the pack in race three was awesome.

Considering it had a podium at brands and had 3 pretty decent results it's certainly not a slow car. But it's a new car and needs time too develop, don't forget the current top 10 are all in cars that have been about for a few years apart from the civic but you expect them up there.

Not exactly consistent stewarding. Cook had plenty of chance to avoid cutting the chicane or give the place back but in the Ginettas the lad gets body checked going into the chicane with a pack of cars and gets penalised for cutting it.

Just finished watching the support races and couldn't agree more. I have nothing against/for Cook in particular at all, but that move should never have been allowed to stand.
