British Bits And Bobs

With this weekend’s race looking like little more than a battle between the Red Bulls, I’ve been ploughing through the statistics to see if there is anything that stands out. Safety Car Whilst the wide-open spaces of an airfield, might not seem to offer the risk of collisions leaving debris on the racing line, historically the driver of the Safety Car has been far from redundant at the Northamptonshire venue. Five out of the last ten races here have seen the Safety Car deployed, with it making two appearances in the dry race of 2003. The new layout with an additional long straight followed by the tight entry into Brooklands, will give another situation on the track where there will be large closing speeds. As we have seen in practice and qualifying, there is a huge spread in terms of pace between the frontrunners and the back-markers. Seeing the Safety Car on Sunday is far from certain, but the 6/4 about its deployment on offer at Sky Bet looks just a little on the large side to leave alone completely. Winning Margin Not a market that I usually get heavily involved in, but it is worth noting when something stands out.
