Josh Cook in a BMR Honda would, historically be the strongest package at Thruxton. If he's not right up there in qualifying, then it will show the M-SPort engine is lagging behind the others.

Looks like that engine worked nicely, at least on this circuit. Good to see JP in the mix as well.

He's 8th, so I'd say it's working.

Hill's less than a tenth of a second off pole. I wonder if he can catch Cook as the tyres start to wear? He may be hoping for a safety car! Or he'll beat him off the line with RWD.
Anyway I'm really looking forward to this. Maybe we'll get another legendary Sutton vs Cook battle for the lead at the end of race 2.
