I'll comment on the racing later...but Ted Kravitz is driving me mad. He clearly knows nothing about touring cars, and all he seems to be doing is being rude to the drivers when interviewing them. He seems to want to bring F1 into it all the time as well, which seems odd because he's hardly an F1 expert either...
Bring back VBH! Never thought I would be saying that!

On second thoughts, it's on ITV. therefore CBA.

What was all that SEAT team orders stuff about? Plato said it was to do with the bonus point for laps led but it was very odd.

You sure it was team orders? I could understand Plato moving ahead but not giving away 3 points at the end. They could prove crucial by the end of the season, it will be very tight this year unlike the last 2.

It probably wasn't an order from the team, it was about this bonus point for leading the race. I just don't like it because it makes the thing seem a bit farcical and that isn't good for the sport.

It's the rule giving a point for leading the race that is stupid...it means teams running 1-2 will do that.

Bit late here as had limited net access....
Turner was quicker than Plato, so should have won and rightly did in my opinion. I was expecting Plato to be allowed to win for the championship, but he obviously was only "allowed" to lead due to championship points - still ridiculous as far as I'm concerned. But, unfortunately, it doesn't always seem to be pure "racing" any more.
