Can't complain really, think the right man won at the end of the season.

It's not like he dominated, he only got it on the line :)

A great day of racing all around. :thumbsup:

Tordoff lost because he lacks the aggression & outright speed needed to succeed in touring cars. Just settling for points won't get you anywhere.

Nice to see that ITV have finally figured out how to show the start lights properly. Now watch them forget by the start of next season.

Have to agree really. After his stint as Plato's teammate I was worried he was becoming a bit dirty, but he didn't defend against Morgan at all into Druids. Not sure how it looked on TV but it seemed he decided to let him through or else got caught napping badly!

Looks like ITV didn't show any of the first Junior race of the day, which is a shame. Middleton won by 0.062 seconds

They mentioned it in the commentary but that was it. They also only showed Shedden's trophy presentation, none of the others. Nor could they be bothered to spell Frank Gardner's name correctly on a multiple champions graphic. There was also a graphic which showed champions with the fewest wins in a season, which was totally wrong.

Yep, there was a 5 car pile up to start, though only 1 dnf, then Middleton won a drag race to the line after being behind for ages...sorry to frustrate :P Some decent battling but it wasn't a patch on the second race if that helps!

Yeah I was at the track too, you're right that most of the race wasn't as good but the finish was fantastic. Clean, close racing that a lot of drivers double their age could learn from...
