Quite a race, arguably the most interesting in a long time. The Superbru site is busy updating something else so more info on our pool results later today. Below articles explain what went down at the race. Pete :cheers:

A low scoring race in our pool, perhaps the lowest on average we've ever had. Reasons galore as explained in the BBC and Crashnet articles.

Bamboo Grove had the best race with 11 points and the top three remain Pitsch, Pete and RZR.

It may not be finished yet. I saw something today about a tribunal being set up to look more into it all. One firm conclusion by all the judges so far is that Hamilton did nothing inappropriate. Ricciardo also interviewed that Vettel's temper is bad and he needs to better control it. Pete :cheers:

Yeah, Hamilton had problems all through practice and qualifying - still, I have faith that he'll at least be on the Podium (I dearly hope without Vettel)! :banghead:

Bottas takes his second win of the season. Best race for our pool goes to JJBones with 14 points. Pitsch also had 14 but type of points tipped it to JJ. The top three are now Pitsch, Pete and JJBones.
