BTCC Rd.8 @ Rockingham 6th/7th September 2014

We head to Rockingham for our first of two consecutive meetings in Northamptonshire.

Knockhill provided some very close racing and three fairly long winless streaks were broken. Will we see more of the same at The Rock, or will the year's previous winners return to the top step of the podium? We could even see a first-time winner in Adam Morgan or maybe Rob Austin could win again? The only way to find out is to not watch that race in Italy!

Would love to see another Rob Austin win. The cheers from the crowd when he won race 2 was one of the highlights of the entire 2013 season.

Why did they have to clash with F1 again?

I'm tempted, but it is a bit crap for taking photos.

A couple of interesting entries in the supports this weekend. Nicholas Latifi in Porsches and John Hindhaugh in Ginettas.

STOP RACING ON THE SAME WEEKEND AS F1 Rubbish.

Foggy as hell this morning. If this was F1 they wouldn't be running. From T4 end of the pit building, you can hardly see T1.

The top of the pit garages is a good spot, and the outside of Tarzan if you can sneak beyond the fence. Everywhere else is huge catchfencing, and the far end of the track has absolutely no spectating areas, unless it's changed since?

Plato gets his expected back-of-the-grid penalty, subject to appeal of course.
