Quotes from the eighth qualifying session of the 2024 Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship season
Chris Smiley: Today was, I think, fairly positive. We had FP1 and FP2, and we scrubbed some tyres, but didn’t really get a proper run. We ended up in the top 10 in FP2. Going into qualifying, we hadn’t really driven the car in dry conditions yet, and the track was sort of half wet, half dry. Being at the end of the pit lane, we probably could have benefited from getting another lap in qualifying. But yeah, it’s easy to say that now. We’re starting 14th, so we’re on the fringes of the top 10, which puts us in a good place for a reverse grid in Race 3.
Scott Sumpton: It was a very, very difficult day here at Donington Park for qualifying. I’m really, really annoyed with how it’s gone, but tomorrow is where it counts. We’ve got to keep our eyes forward and make sure we move up the grid tomorrow.
