A pretty standard lose out of the old hairpin and rotate backwards into the barriers, however the splitter kinda dug into the wet grass and bunny hopped into the air. Not exactly major air list potential but I thought it was interesting if Btcc splitters have become so low that we're gonna get NASCAR style grass bumps into the air My plan to post during the day failed when I couldn't log in on my phone but here I am now and should be able to post xpert track updates tomorrow And yeah as the linked tweet says, bizarre moment in the F4 start when only 2 of the start lights went off and the others stayed on.....lucky we didn't wipe out half the field there But good numbers in f4 this year, 22 or 23 I think, up yours GB4 lol The rain that fell was just annoying enough to wet and freeze me but not enough to cause chaos on track, the absolute worst amount of rain! (Though I may eat these words tomorrow!) Legends (X2) and Minis had photo finishes today. Great racing all throughout except for the Radicals that stunk up the show. Please make them go away! Onto tomorrow, where it'll be raining and the track will be WET |

Was there a reason Ingram came straight in or is he just hiding from the conditions? |
