So why did the minis get like 15 mins for their race, so a crash meant it was sc and they threw the chequered EARLY with 1 min to go on the clock because of time constraints....

You're just making things up.


Someone wasn't watching then, that's exactly what happened
The race ran for 20 mins and the flag was shown when the time elapsed, as it should have. Pay attention.

I have no idea how Harvey thought it was Moffat who put Thompson off when it was clearly a Hyundai.

This weekend has injected some life back into the championship battle. Cammish is right up there.

And the point, which you seem to wilfully want to miss, is that the Minis were held to that 20 mins time limit whereas the porsches got a red flag period where the clock was stopped and they still got most of their race distance in.

Nice attempt at a back-track. Can't you admit being wrong?

There was fluid and debris strewn across the width of the track, as well barrier damage (which turned out not to be as bad as it might have first appeared). Neither of which was the case in Minis. And even if Porsche are paying for the time, as you so often state, there's nothing to stop other manufacturers from doing the same for their series.

I don't have to backtrack anything, the point isn't about the legitimacy of the red flag, it's about the Minis being held to their strict 20 mins of track time and the Porsches having their time extended

And the point, which Gaara answered immediately and frankly didn't need your whoosh intervention over the next 3 posts, is that yeah, the BTCC will bend over backwards to accommodate Porsche at the expense of everyone else. Even the BTCC probably would've had to wait. It's everything to do with how much money they pay to be on the series bill and probably what car Mr Gow drives to and from the circuit.
From an entertainment point of view, however, we all know they're the worst to watch. And today's race of 12 cars in 2 different classes was no different, big wrecks or not

Are we done now?
