BTCC Round 2 Discussion

The rain could well help to jumble the grid order. I can't help but feel the SEATs still haven't shown their full hand.

Everyone is so suspicious of SEAT, but I honestly think they're currently at their maximum pace. The engine is definately faster but they are still sorting out the handling of the car. I can't remember if rain is good or bad for SEAT...

And now the track is drying - this is set to be pretty exciting!

It's going to be like Brands Qualli, Getting alot quicker.
In terms of the SEATS handling, its more front heavy this year, because of the heavier engine, and heavier front axle, but if this helps in the wet we will have to see.

Oh wow - Plato sets a lap 1.8 seconds faster than anyone...

Collard fails ride height examination.

And Hughes goes second by 0.2!!! The track is getting so much faster.

I know that qualifying is significant, but is it really worth commenting yet when the lap times are in the 1 minute 29s? They are all going to go faster later, as the practice times were in the 1:24s. So just wait and see a little longer...

Haha, it must be getting dryer if Hughes goes second LMAO.

Interesting that the petrol Leon's quicker than the Diesel's so far.

Yeah, I'm getting a little over excited I guess. But still, it's fun to watch!

Kane has lost all his laps because he "failed to start on the flat patch". What does that mean?

[VX_Rules]

Im surprised by the Honda's pace.

[Mp3 Astra]

So Plato and Turner are shown as doing great times, but they are remaining in 4th and 5th where they should be first and third.
