A few little things to note:
- 23 drivers took part in a race of the original 27 that signed up. The 4 that failed to make an event have officially been removed from the entry lists and final results tables, as per the real world.
- 6 drivers took part in every race - RumblyLizard, Tomcheesey, Shouty, Dan Thorn, Ajokay and Bookoi - coincidentally, they were the top 6 drivers in the final standings. 7th place Mr Flobadob would have done were it not for his one DNS.
- Only 2 drivers finished every race in the points - Rumbly and Shouty. Everyone else either finished out of the points, had a DNF, a DNS, or missed rounds.
- 5 drivers won races. Rumbly, Cheesey, Bookoi, Shouty, TommyB - all Original 8 members... c'mon newbies, we can't have this!
- In addition to the 5 drivers above, a further 3 finished on the podium - Dan Thorn, Ajokay, and Mr Flobadob
- 4 of the 8 Marques won races - Nissan, VW, Ford, and Citroen. Chevrolet managed a best of 2nd. Peugeot and Toyota failed to make the podium, with a best of 5th and 6th respectively. Vauxhall failed to turn up to a single race.
- The top 3 in the Master of Marques championship were seperated by just 8 points, from Ford's 230, through VW's 226, to Citroen's 222.
- The final points tallies of both Nissan and Chevrolet came from a single driver's results.
- 3 drivers scored Pole Position. Dan Thorn, Shouty, and Rumbly.
- 5 drivers scored a fastest lap - Rumbly, Dan Thorn, Flavoury, Tomcheesey and Mr Flobadob
- The highest placed driver not to finish on the podium was defending champion FlavouryRug, who managed a best of finishing 4th 3 times.
- Of the 11 races that he finished, Tomcheesey either finished on the podium... or in 9th.
- Rookie Cup winner Bazskating finished a race in the highest finishing position for a rookie, with a 5th place at Hockenheim.
- TommyB's second win was sandwiched between two 13th place finishes (2nd-from-last in this case). A real rollercoaster of emotions was that event!
- 17 of the 23 drivers scored points.
- Mr E 004 and Tommo N7 had a real fondness for ending a race in 11th, with 4 and 6 finishes in that position respectively. I'm just glad both of them managed to finish 10th or higher at least once!
- Round 11's finish may have been the closest in the club's history. Only 0.172 seconds seperated TommyB and Dan Thorn as they crossed the finish line at Tsukuba.
