That's as close as Tordoff's allowed to get.

Yeah, I know he's mad and I don't care. I do not care. I did not care then. I do not care now. I'm here to race him.

When you're the leader you find the standing water first.

I enjoyed the three BTCC races and was delighted to see Turks have such a great weekend. I disagree with Tim Harvey saying "BMW are back" because if you look back over the past few years, WSR and BMW have always been strong at Croft. It is almost as if being suited to Croft is embedded in the DNA of the BMW. That said Turks has been superbly consistent this season so far and isn't far off the title battle. Here's hoping...

As for the rest, I was surprised to see the MG team play such an odd strategy in race two. I know if it had rained then Plato would have won... if it had rained... but no-one else took a gamble, and with the title battle so close that was a stupidly regrettable tactical idea.

It says at the bottom of the results - regulation C.1.1.5 (Driving in a manner incompatible with general safety, and/or departing from the standard of a reasonably competent driver).

Thanks. No idea what all the regulations sections are.

So did anyone who watched the race see something questionable about Stoneman's driving?

Maybe there was some foul play in the incident where they all piled into the back of him and smashed their radiators? When you look at the replay they all got caught out big style, and certainly weren't expecting him to be on the brakes as much as he was (or where he was).

But too be honest I didn't see anything unusual in that. We all know how sensitive the front of the Porsche's are in regards to the radiators. Any normal car would have got away with that. To be honest, blaming Stoneman for it is rather unfair.

Presumably they ignore this rule whenever Neate turns up.

Well he's not a reasonably competent driver so standards are lower for him.
