I'm quite surprised to see Thompson down in 18th, he obviously needs a bit more time to get used to the car.

That's quite a lot around a sub-1 minute lap.

Neal's less than .2 off fastest and they're carrying the same weight.

For clarification, the Insignia is present, but they were having clutch issues last night.

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.

Nice! 16 juniors, which is enough for some fun.
Just 13 Formula Renault cars, but I suppose that's the norm.

Quite a few drivers shown the black/white flag for exceeding the track limits at Copse. They should put gravel there.

Yeah, I counted about 21 drivers getting the B&W and about 6 or 7 of them were black flagged.

:lol: reliability aside, the Vectra is (imo) one of the better looking cars on the grid, and would be a shame if none of them make it back onto the grid for next year.
