Yep not only that but a top 10 start for race 3 15 or so cars in front of turks so not only losing points in race 2 but he has to fight his way through again with turks and butcher right behind him. Also cammish and ingram will be starting up the front. What a waste that move was.
Yep, going into last race with a 17pt lead with them on the back of the grid could have seen him end the day with a 20-25+pt lead going to Brands.

Muppet.

Just confirmed to nobodies surprise. Cook and Neal swapped around. Neal received a 0.7 second penalty.

Well that's (potentially) changed things a bit. Let's hope Tingram and Cammish take full advantage of the reverse grid whilst Turk and Sutton struggle through the field. Could end up being really close again between the top 4 points wise by 1730!

Spot the spelling mistake on the ITV graphic, an "e" instead of an "a" in "Cayman" smile

Virtual noticeboard now updated, interestingly, Tom Ingram has only received a reprimand for the same offence.

Sorry but I have to disagree with the criticism of Sutton. The fact that he tries to win every race and doesn’t settle for points like Turkington does makes it far better to watch.

Yep. If there were 26 Turkingtons it'd be a lot less interesting to watch. That's not to take anything away from Turk, his risk averse strategy clearly works well for him. It's just unfortunate that Sutton's all or nothing approach has given him nothing this time. Will be interesting to see how they compare starting from the back in race 3.

Good to see Thompson out of that and walking away, even if a tiny bit dazed, understandably.

Bloody hell not half. Glad he’s got out ok although he doesn’t exactly look steady on his feet.
