certainly looks that way. nice way to finish with team dynamics though... give away a podium and a possible win to help your new team instead....

unless of course dynamics are running vectras as well next year...

So I guess Halfords must have been really happy with Neals display.

1/ Working for someone else while still in Halfords employ

2/ Bringing Halfords name into disrepute.

3/ Settling old scores and bringing poor publicity to Halfords

4/ Breach of contract.

Maybe Halfords could sue for the costs involved in that last round. They had effectively paid him to drive for another team using all their equipment.

Except the post race interview where he complained about having to race 4 cars 3 green and one orange. And saying it's not really on but there you go.

Yeah plato said he was racing four VAUXHALLS three green and one ORANGE but that he didn't expect any different from Matt Neal.

I remember Neal being particularly arsey with That scots MG driver at silverstone once when he was actually the one in the wrong.
