COLLARD JR’S DEBUT

Ricky Collard, who was standing in for his father Rob in a WSR BMW, finished the opening two races in 17th and 20th places before being ruled out of the finale when the propshaft failed on the warm-up lap. His stranded car twice caused the start of race three to be delayed. Collard earned two penalty points on his licence in race one for passing under yellow flags.
