BTCC Round 7 - Croft 10th & 11th Oct

[emicen]

Feels crazy writing round 7 and mid October!

Anyways, Butcher’s Focus is back in the game. Rivett taking over from Jiggy in the Tradeprice Audi S3, Bushell in the HARD CC.

MINI Challenge Cooper class are back supporting.

Porsche Cayman support series also guesting this weekend.

Should be an interesting weekend of racing, whilst Croft has traditionally been a RWD circuit, that hasn’t always panned out this year, FWD is definitely a lot closer than previous seasons.

It appears there is some saltiness developing in the relationship with WSR.

From reading other tweets, it appears Andy feels somewhat airbrushed out of their campaign last year.

He’s always been fairly frank about stuff on Twitter.

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.

Haven’t heard it mentioned on TV yet but appears Sutton and Butcher have had their places reversed so Sutton is lining up on P4 for the 2nd race, with Butcher in P5.

This is possibly the best example you are ever likely to see, of the difference between a hard racer and a smart racer.

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

Nothing on the virtual noticeboard as yet.

Time sheets.
