Moderator's Report
The maligned East London circuit produced a thrilling race and finish. Lorenzo in the BT7 went off in the lead, leaving an Ickx-Vix finish. The immortal comedy duo of Burt and Bernie is unrivalled amongst active UKGPLers- but I feel that this pair might have more to offer.
There was only one incident reported from this race. I'm not guaranteed to moderate unreported incidents, and I'd dislike to appear arbitrary if I miss something.

L1 Potters
Sam overtakes Clive Gardner's Cooper coming into Potters but as a consequence cannot hold the inside line when overtaking Alain's Cooper, and slides into his side.
I've waived the 1 place extra penalty for a Lap 1 incident and also the yellow card points, due to lack of experience with full grids at this level.

L1 Potters
Al has slowed more than other drivers because of the incident ahead, so that when Geoff comes into Potters fast he rear-ends him. Geoff might have been able to spot that the track wasn't blocked, but should have anticipated that drivers ahead couldn't count on this and would have slowed. Al's reset is free.
I've waived the 1 place extra Lap 1 penalty and also the yellow card points because of the incident ahead- though only because no yellow flags had yet been shown.

L3 S/F straight
Al leaves his pass too late and clips Graham, who is sent spinning off the track. The warp seems to have been after contact.
I've waived the yellow card points because Graham was slightly slow after Beacon- though Al had the space to make a better pass.

L9 Rifle Bend
Clive's BT7 is faster than John's Cooper into Rifle and he gets alongside. However he cannot hold the inside line. The ensuing contact is very close to the centre line. Clive takes the sng for his reset.

L25 Beacon
Clive must have lost his braking points here and brakes far earlier than usual. While close behind, Alain seems to have the space to avoid him, but doesn't make it.
