British Touring Car Championship (BTCC)

BTCC Rounds 13-15

Video highlights of wins for Plato, Neal & Thompson at Croft - but the day ends with a controversial decision

Jason Plato, Matt Neal and James Thompson were the winners of last Sunday's three Dunlop MSA British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) rounds at the Croft circuit in North Yorkshire.

Team Halfords driver Neal extended his championship lead to 39 points over Colin Turkington, but the day has ended in some controversy. Reigning champion Neal lost the third place result he achieved in race three. The BTCC's Clerk of the Course initially reprimanded Neal for overtaking Plato at the final corner by placing all four wheels off the circuit. A subsequent appeal by Plato's SEAT team was then upheld by the BTCC Stewards who judged Neal's actions had gained him an unfair advantage.

Neal was subsequently demoted a place to fourth while Plato was elevated to third. That means Plato, third in the championship, has gained five points on Neal in the title race which now heads to Donington Park, Leicestershire on 30 July.
