I’m not denying Sutton’s ability, but Mr Harvey is hardly subtle every round. He certainly seems a favourite to that pundit compared to any other driver on the grid.
Whilst we’re on the subject of commentary, David “LOOK!” Addison would do well to take his own advice and look at the damn screens and he might not call so many things wrong in every race. He really is chronic. emicen said:
This is possibly the best example you are ever likely to see, of the difference between a hard racer and a smart racer.
Jason Plato said recently that he sees a lot of himself in Sutton, when he was younger and that he's bloody quick but not the smartest.If I knew my championship rival that was level with me on points had gone off, I'd be sitting perfectly happy in my nice safe 3rd place with a hatful of points, knowing that I'll probably get a decent result in race 3 too, while Turks is starting from the back.
The last thing I'd be doing is a do-or-die move down the inside, banging wheels to get 2nd, only if a very clear and safe opportunity presented itself.

I see NicHam is still absolute rubbish, is there any reason he's still in the seat beyond the obvious?
Extra Funding from his brother perhaps. But it's mainly due to the similiar goings on in the BBC, ITV, etc.Box ticking over talent.
Is he going to win races no however he has the budget and if a team wants to run him and nic is happy to race cant really see an issue. Hes not exactly miles of the pace of his team mates or spearing everyone off every round ala a certain other driver.

Absolutely.What a plonker.
Its the old adage of, to finish first, first you have to finish.

He cant exactly race if the team cant get the car on the grid repeatedly and not just his car neither. No team hard driver is going great atm. His brother doesn't fund is drive its been openly stated many times.

Can't argue with that.Is he going to win races no however he has the budget and if a team wants to run him and nic is happy to race cant really see an issue. Hes not exactly miles of the pace of his team mates or spearing everyone off every round ala a certain other driver.

You could see Sutton was getting frustrated behind Hill, despite the hatful of points he was going to get for 3rd.....so it was just a matter of time before he made a do or die lunge.
