I can see SD climbing the pit wall & beating Shedden to a pulp if he does it again

I bet SEAT doesn't sponsor Knockhill this year!

Bad Luck in that last one, bit of a clanger on JP's part :doh: But overall a good strong weekend from SEAT, good for the manufacturers as VX were no-where today, so the damage is limited to the driver championship. 102 Points suck on that VX :D

Great to see an indy win, well done to Mike Jordan, good race.

Roll on Oulton :D

A little dissapointed with the Seats this weekend (but you cant win every race but it would be nice) but Oulton Park soon so a chance for another crack of the whip. Middlesbrough are playing today so summit else for me to keep my eye on. Still Seat are No.1 in the manufacturers standings from the look of it which is the most important thing. If the weather looks good i will no doubt be seeing some of you at Oulton Park.

Wouldn't call it dissapointment in SEAT, Mondello has never been kind to SEAT. i'd sqaurely point it at bad Luck more than anything, compounded by Shedden's optomistic manuever on Thommo. And JP's error.

A strong point scoring though for the manufacturers title and the fact VX had a complete balls up of a weekend, means the damage is very limited really only to the drivers championship, and that is still far too close at this stage to call or write off.

Overall not a disaster, or a dissapointment.. a learning exercise.

Move on, Oulton Park :)

Agree, but like i said dissapointed but you cant win every race. I cant help the fact i want Seat to totally dominate every race in the the BTCC season.:clap:

Just one race win would have cheered me up. Damn Matt Neal sat having a pint now with his race wins and a 3rd makes me wanna be :sick:

I dont even really dislike him i just like to win. Lets hope Oulton Park has some race wins for Seat and they gain lots of points.

Bit of a shame not to have any Leon wins but it's not so bad when you consider what Vauxhall are doing.

Plus it takes the wind out of the sails of the 'The Seat's are too light" brigade, being beaten in all three races by a BTC spec car, allbeit of suspect eligibility.

Exactly, something I think on the most part we should avoid, motorsport is about competition, but without the other competitors it wouldn't be much of a race, and though im ultimately hoping that SEAT win the race, im just as entertained and enjoy the racing if they don't, and i'll still applaud the winner regardless of what team they drive for, unless they punted a SEAT off to do it :p.

Sporting spirit, but it is good that VX are on the backfoot at the moment :D

But 888 are not be underestimated, its still early in the season and anything can happen. :blink:

they need to stop giving their drivers a 'known' setup & let them develop their own from my understanding

"it worked for muller, now make it work for you"

at least if TD 'win' lots they won't moan like little girls about not running an S2000 car

Other than Matt Neal bleating on about how heavy he was nearly all day, even after he won the first race.

However he was less vocal about it after his second win of the afternoon with full ballast, then his second place in race 3 too, again with full ballast.

Wonder why that would be. :think:
