I reckon what I said a couple of months back still stands true.
Before now, one could say that he actually hasn't been aggressive enough. That was nearly shown to be right in Race 3. But luckily he realised he had to start using his elbows. In a cruel twist of fate, his aggression nearly cost him the championship! That car was a crab for the last 10 laps. It's amazing he was able to drive properly.
I'm so happy for Colin. He's waited 8 years for this, and is one of the most deserving champions in the history of the BTCC. Fantastic. Let's hope the BTCC can find something magic next year before all the big names and cars migrate to other series...

End race, "/laps 0" I think. Also make sure there is no qualifying.
Gutted for Arena and Chilton, losing their victory at the last corner. But that said, that's one of the best finishes I've ever seen in the BTCC! You do sometimes see the leaders go over the line side-by-side but I can't remember the last time the lead actually changed after the last corner.
Plato can still win this championship!

Interesting race. I really love the track; I forgot how interesting it is. It's a shame it's horribly dangerous.
Not entirely sure what your point is here... Grosjean was unfortunately placed when the SC came out and was between Trulli and Vettel. Hardly his fault. He got out of everyone's way when it was safe to do so.

Ok, just to check again:
You are sure you pushed down on the knob and then turned counter-clockwise while still pushing down?

Wow, what a crazy session that was. Seb-crash-tian Buemi somehow managed to wreck the car twice and carry on driving.
Not impressed with the TV directing of the session; at one moment the director spent 20 seconds looking at the Force India garage when nothing was going on. I've never been impressed with the Japanese TV director.
But, should be a very interesting race tomorrow with Button down in 7th.
I'm going back to bed.

Wouldn't work anyway, since people using controllers are shown as Wheel anyway.
As a TV director/commentator, this is nearly as awesome as replay controls. THANK YOU! 
Oh crikey Alex, that really sucks a lot. 
I'm really hope, and am sure there will be other opportunities. Good luck for whatever you do next/carry on doing

They wouldn't have won the 6 races, no. I'm sure they would have won races and I reckon Button would probably still be the championship leader, but by less of a margin. All of this is just guessing, there's no way to turn back time and see what could have been.
Hopefully next year it will be easier to see who is actually the best driver.

Barrichello has won since, and the Brawns are very much on the pace. What's more, other teams were using the double diffuser and not performing nearly as well as the Brawns. But Button really has let his game slip lately. I hope he can win the championship in style, winning at least one more race this season.
I think the comment on the first page says it all. If he crashes, he's going to be playing music out of the back of his head for quite some time.
It looks like your monitor is sitting very high up, which probably isn't helping. Can you lower it, or make the chair taller?
Don't worry, I do shower much more regularly. But my point is, what is clean supposed to mean?
What does clean have to do with it? I shower about once every 2 years, so should I not be behind the microphone?
Whoa! Looks like your computer had a bit of a burp and tried to correct your inputs or something. That's all I can think of.
Well, Matt probably would have tried to take Jason to the cleaners whether he was or was not fighting for the championship.
Totally out of the question. The sponsors don't pay each team to help each other out in their times of need. I have never seen two teams deliberately helping each other. And you know that Plato will be driving as fast as he can, like he always does. This year he's had the 'everything or bust' attitude and I don't think for a moment that it's going to change for the final 3 races.
Dag nab it! I was about to say that! Can I be as funny as as you anyway? Gotta be more speedy about these things...
To be fair, that statement from Gio was probably made just after he got out of the car, or half an hour later.
I bet nearly everyone here has, at some point in the past, finished an LFS league race and jumped on the forums to have a good old bitch and moan. Myself included!
Don't judge Gio for being pissed off; he had a good position on a plate and had it ruined through some contact. But yes, if you're going to give out bumps, you have to expect some in return!

Great, thanks for the links. If this forum had rep, I would give you plenty! I'll look into these in details sometime this week
I honestly am just stunned and amazed at all this. Scavier really came up trumps this time...
HOLY CRAP! That's all I have to say today. I will drink to LFS S3 tonight, that's for sure!
