After a month off, it's almost time for the fourth round of the season at the picturesque Oulton Park in Cheshire. A slight change for this year sees the series racing on the full international circuit for the first time since 1996, although this will be the first time that this exact layout will be used by the BTCC. A slight change to the support package this weekend will see the Porsche Carrera Cup replaced by the HSCC Super Touring Championship, of which both races will be broadcast.

Belcher's car has been completely fixed now

Meanwhile, work on Ollie Jackson's car only began this week, due to the sheer number of parts required.

I approve! Unfortunately I'm away and I'll have to wait a week before I can watch all the action.

But fortunately ready in time

Bloody good effort

Belcher picked up an ankle injury unloading the car, doh!

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.

Absolutely appalling coverage from ITV. I've had do disable AdBlock just to see the stream, they then spent the first five minutes of the session showing adverts, numerous cameras are unmanned and there are no on screen graphics! BTCC is the only thing they show that's worth watching and they can't even be bothered to broadcast it properly. ITV are a useless bunch of spastics who couldn't do anything right if they tried, and the day that their channels are taken off the air can't come soon enough.

BTW: Red flag at the moment, Morgan crashed at Druids.

Turkington on pole. Session ended under red with Clarke in the wall at Druids.

Just saw the last 5 minutes of qualifying and really should be going to bed before work but HAVE to stay up and watch this now. Haven't seen cars like these in years!

Are purposely making it difficult to find the quali stream these days?

That was great fun. Horrified at the implication that cars I watched as a teenager are now considered "historics" though.

A very good, clean race there... and now it's time for Clios.
