Genuinely can't see what he did wrong except have a puncture then get set upon by about 3 cars in the time it took for him to look in the mirrors.

One day i'd love to watch a BTCC meeting without all this tribal bullshit.
Yeah I hate plato but I think it's justifiable and once he retires (must be soon with the way this season is going!) I'll be able to go back to being a neutral and watch all this fooball "my hero driver vs their demon driver" side vs side bullshit from a distance.

Come back on to the track and make a beeline for the pits right across the racing line with complete disregard for everyone behind him...?

Interesting theory.

Not saying that he's not in the wrong this time, because he is. He was never going to make it to the pit lane.

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.

Doing anything but spin with a puncture is pretty impressive tbh, I doubt he was doing much but trying to control it.

Besides looking in his mirrors he probably just saw one car, it would've been hard to see more than that...

Probably tame. They'll have back off on the tyre pressures massively in the hope of not getting a puncture...

They know it's only 12 laps so they could maybe go a bit harder. Soon find out

I can see drivers pushing harder and the punctures happening around lap 9 - 10.
