Giovanardi got his knickers in a twist???
Discussion
If You can't take it,don't dish it!.
He's forever shunting people out the way and gets away with it so what goes around,comes around!.
As for: "He’s a guest driver, he’s not involved in the championship, so I don’t know why he had to smash into me, many times", He's in a race to do as well as He can for His team and thats how it's done in the BTCC,as Giovanardi well knows.

Anyone know if the highlights are available on itv player or anywhere? as i missed it and cant find them?
Looks like it will appear here http://www.itv.com/Sport/btcc/Racevideoarchive/def... when available. The highlights were on ITV last night whcih I always record.I think the last paragraph sums it up for me;
"Herbert, meanwhile, went on to finish the race in seventh – his best result to date after making his BTCC debut in the previous round at Silverstone. That was after he had been forced out of race one with damage to his car sustained when it was T-boned by Giovanardi’s team-mate Matt Neal’s Vectra."
I think he was lucky he wasn't badly hurt with Neal taking to the grass to gain an advantage and then finding that slicks and grass don't mix when trying to brake for a corner!

I doubt Neal took to the grass deliberately. Was there actually footage showing how he got on to it? I don't remember seeing any.+ 1 for Turkington.........quality races over the weekend.
Gio is a dodgy git - he pushing Jackson straight off - not a leg to stand on!
I was off my sofa when Crash Bandicoot Plato drove into Turkey and turned him around.
Absolutely shocking in my opinion - he knew what he was doing.........he should have had a match ban for that in my opinion.

If Plato hadn't of kept his foot in Turkey would of spun out. Wouldn't it be good for it to go down to the last race with all three with a genuine chance of winning the championship!Gio is a dodgy git - he pushing Jackson straight off - not a leg to stand on!

Who knows what could/would have happened.
What we do know is that Plato deliberately attempted to end Turkingtons race - and potentially championship - for me - that sort of driving should be kept for muppets on playstations - not top flight drivers.
I'm was over the moon when Plato put himself out - he deserved it.
My fingers are firmly crossed for Turkey to do the business - I'll be there cheering him on!

edited to say......not that i'm a TEAM RAC fan - but out of the chaps up for the champ he gets my vote!
Roll on Airwaves BMW for next season!

It has always been the case that those seeking to win a chmpionship have to be very respectful to those who are not.
Probably a typical tabloid edit anyway, I can't really see Gio saying those words exactly in that context - more likely he answered Yes, to the loaded question "do you think Herbert ruined your race?"
