Would have been funny if Neal had anticipated Plato forgetting to brake, and cut the corner whilst Plato went flying off the track by himself. Oh well. What races do we have before the final BTCC race?


Porches...

That's it.

Fuck you Renault


I read that the Clio Cup won't be part of the package next year sadly.


JESUS CHRIST! NOT THE CLIOS NOOOOOOOOOOOO

That's worse news than finding out Plato had won the championship :(

They better come back next year with a FFord, Caterham, Legends or other actual decent support program now though.

Dont want Alan Gow's "It's better if the marshals have more time to tidy up" bullshit

Caterhams or Legends would be great. Minis produce good racing as well. There's plenty of options, but it would be a great shame to lose Clios.

Mini 7s: great!

New style BMW not really Mini's: Crap

Gow will just take who can offer him most, as he should probably....

So it'll be another dull one make series like the Porsches then, probably

The Formula Renault BARC series was way more entertaining. They should put that on again.

Can't remember where I read it. It was either in Motorsport News or Autosport. But it might have been a threat from Gow rather than confirmation!

I heard them mentioned a DQ, and suddenly sat up hoping to hear something about Plato. :(

Where do you draw the line with penalties though. Gelzinis took a rival off by being completely unaware. Plato did it deliberately. Which is worse?

Y'see, I like taking people off due to being unaware...

I also like doing it deliberately, Plato style...

Which is better?

There's only one way to find outtt....

We were saved from the awfulness of the first by the editing cutting out the majority of the laps...

Which almost made it seem half decent...

They often get close without being able to overtake. Are the Porsches quite aero dependent or something?
