cos should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
BTCC Mondello - rounds 4-6

Thommo, Neal and Turkington fastest in FP1 (full results here).

No Mark Smith as they haven't been able to get the appropriate gearbox parts in time. Vauxhall's surprisingly off the pace so far.

It's all a bit tame so far, the only thing that's interesting is the introduction of a tyre-bale on the inside of the second last corner which is traditionally one of the good passing places for taking it onto the grass.

Bets are currently on as to how long the bale will last tomorrow.

One stuck in the gravel, so not exactly earth shattering!

No he wouldn't, he will only lose the 6 place once the apply from Brands has been sorted out.

All that "race" needed was a float with a beauty queen and a local radio "celebrity" to turn it into a proper procession.

Yup, that race was woeful - all drivers thinking of the championship and just happy to bring their cars home!

Says it all when you can say you've seen more overtaking in a F1 race!

At least it wasn't wacky races again with pathetic crash bang wallop racing...I'd rather see that then see someone take someone out to get passed and take the position as they are not fast enough to pass someone and keep ahead.

Good result for Plato...

I am the only one who isn't the biggest fans of these coupes?

Classic!


Too right it was boring, but it was a good point Tim Harvey made that a lot of them learned from being too outrageous in Race 1 at Brands.

At least they were clean, which is something admittedly!

Now they need to start 'racing' again, in this manner!

Surely got to be action on Shedden's move - I guess both Vauxhall and SEAT have reason to complain!


Mike Jordan is on pole for race 3 - Matt Neal drew the number 8 for the reverse grid.

He's now been disqualified. Deservedly so.

I am cheering on Mike Jordan for a win here... I think he's got a good chance.
