I have to agree. I haven't watched much BTCC this year, (always working) but now I understand what the deal is. I work for a well known corporate/leisure karting company and I'm one of the most liberal race directors here. I'm all for a bit of hard racing; side by side battles, bit of a rubbing's racing ethos having been racing MSA in cars and karts for over 20 years, but good God yesterday's BTCC was unbelievable.
The deliberate front to rear contact to gain an advantage was widespread and deliberate in every case! Matt Neal and Rob Collard are the worst for it!
It's amazing that they don't get the absolute ***t kicked out of them as I know my patience wouldn't hold up!
How can I, with a straight face, say to my drivers 'No bumping' when week in and week out that's what they are watching the so called 'professional' drivers do?
