Travelling to Skye tomorrow. Might be able to catch the final race, or else I'm keeping away from this thread for a week until I can see it!

Yikes. I've got images of the crazy wet Brands weekend in 95. When we had Rydell on his roof at Hawthornes and Sugden on his roof at Clearways. Could be one if those weekends...

That looks like it may take just a slight bit of work to get out later

Well it can't have been caused by Neate, so was it Plato?

Looks like it could have been a similar crash to what Plato had at Snetterton, where the flexibility of the armco flipped the car. It is quite easy to spin off there.

Does anyone know what's happened to Jeff Smith? He only started the first race at Silverstone and he isn't at Brands. He doesn't seem to be short of a few quid, so maybe a falling out with the team?

I think at Silverstone he was unwell and I read earlier that he and the team agreed not to race so Pirtek could focus on Jordan this weekend.
