BTCC 2009 - Brands Hatch GP Circuit (Final Rounds)

[Eudemon]

The BTCC 2009 Championship will be decided today between the top 2 Colin Turkington and Fabrizio Giovanardi with Jason Plato possibly able to do it if he wins 2 of the rounds and a podium in the final race of the day and the top 2 have a horrible day so basically it's going to be a good one and it will all be decided today!

 

ITV4 right now for those of you in the UK.

 

Come on Turkington and the RWD BMW!!

*spoilers for 1st Race below*

 

 

Wow what a finish by Plato, unlucky for Chilton though in losing it at the last split second of the race after leading it from the start. Gio finished in 3rd and Turkington in 8th meaning there is now only a 6pt lead by Turkington over Gio but Plato winning means he is now right up there in 3rd and only 8pts behind Gio. The 2nd race is in about 2 hours and Turkington will lose his 45kg of ballast so it should make for a good race and one that will definitely shape the Championship final charge.

 

It's going to be an amazing finish to the season.

I'm watching it too. There should be a fair few races as most of the champions are decided on the last race this time around.

Unbelievable racing in the BTCC Race 2 and we still got the Championship decidign final race of the Porsche Carrera Cup GB to come. :D

 

Down to the wire indeed!

 

Lovely driving and clean racing by Turkington as always, come on wee man do it for BMW and the RWD's!!

The last few races of that lap were indeed awesome. I was on the edge of my seat until they crossed the finish line.

 

The Porsche race should be good too. Is it the 3 top people separated by 2 points?

Final BTCC race of the day in the next few mins and this is what will decide the Championship.

 

COME ON TURKINGTON!!

Someone's been on the Irn Bru. :cheeky:

 

Awesome season finale, they were racing for the title till the last corner on the last lap of the last race of the season.

 

Disappointed at Matt Neil and VXRacing tbh.

 

Turkey thoroughly deserved that, after having his rear suspension damaged early on.
