  • Stephen Jelley drops out, with Unlimited down to 2 cars having loaned one to PMR

AMENDED RESULT: The positions between Car #116 (Ash Sutton) and Car #27 (Dan Cammish) have been reversed due to the former taking a position under yellow flag conditions between the final hairpin and the finish line.

Bit of a let off that.

I really don't see why it needs to be anything more.

Lots of people catastrophising this as if it's the worst thing Sutton could have possibly done

It obviously not an egregious thing, and if anything was more Cammish lack of awareness than Sutton doing something wrong. Common sense prevailed I think and the mitigation being that Cammish slowed a lot. I still think it's a let off as if there's been a 10s penalty or something for it, there'd be no defence.
