As we head into the final round, we still have five drivers mathematically in contention to win the title. Realistically It's Shedden's to lose. Plato, Turkington & Neal will need to be lucky, while Jordan will need a miracle.

As far as the other points tables are concerned, Honda look set to take the Manufacturers' crown, leading MG by 64 points with 111 still on the table. Team BMR lead the teams' standings by 55 points over Team Dynamics, again with 111 points to play for. In the Independents' Trophy, Colin Turkington leads Jason Plato by 26 points, with Adam Morgan a further 20 points adrift, with 60 still up for grabs. Team BMR & Josh Cook have already clinched the Independent Teams' and Jack Sears Trophies, respectively. In fact, Cook won the JST at Rockingham.

In the supporting series:

The Ginetta Juniors will go right down to the wire, with only 3 points separating Jamie Caroline & Senna Proctor.

Tom Oliphant will have to have a very bad weekend amongst a 27 car field to lose the title to Carl Breeze. He's leading by 71 points with 109 remaining, although it's only a 49 point lead with dropped scores taken into account.

Lando Norris, Ricky Collard, Colton Herta & Sennan Fielding are all in with a shout of taking championship glory in MSA Formula but realistically, it's between Norris & Collard.

In the Clios, it's a dead heat between Ash Hand & Ant Whorton-Eales. But with Ashley Sutton just 17 points back and 64 points to fight over it should be a thriller.

As we all know, Dan Cammish has already wrapped up the Carrera Cup title but it'll be interesting to see whether he can finish the season with no finishes lower than second.

Since it's the championship weekend, I better post the support results as well. Lando Norris did exactly what he needed to do in MSA Formula:

We've just had what sounded like a classic Clio banger race.

And a red flag right at the start of the Ginetta GT4s.

Provisional result. Sutton & AW-E are being investigated, AW-E isn't very happy with Rivett either.

Hand - 436
Sutton - 427
AW-E - 410

MSA Formula:
Norris - 388
Collard - 359

Amazed to see so many cars in the Ginetta GTs.

I'm really looking forward to this meeting, but I have to try and go a whole week without seeing the results until I get back from holiday. Bad timing!

Last year they showed any championship deciding races during the Sunday coverage, wouldn't be surprised if they do the same tomorrow.

They probably will. The trackside commentators had a TV feed today.
