Well, I believe Thompson finishes 2nd in 2006 if he does the entire season, just outscoring Plato, with 5 wins. However, Neal is still the champion, and SEAT win the constructors AND manufacturers titles. Darren Turner still does the finale, and his performances, as well as SEAT offering Thompson some money, enable SEAT to create a 3 car team for 2007, of Plato, Thompson and Turner.
This forces Vauxhall into also creating a 3 car team, of Giovinardi, Chilton and Matt Neal, who joins Vauxhall a year earlier than in real life. Dynamics put in Rob Collard alongside Gordon Shedden, and Team RAC stay the same (Turkington and Onslow-Cole)
As for the title, Giovinardi still wins the title, from Plato, Thompson, Neal, Turkington, Shedden, Turner, Collard, Chilton and Mat Jackson, in that order. SEAT also win the constructors title in 2007, however there is no cameo from Menu and Coronel at Brands Hatch. This reignites a passion in Thompson, coming so close to a second title two years in a row, and stays for one more year at SEAT. Plato and Turner do the same.
Vauxhall, however, believe that Chilton is holding them back and replace him with Mat Jackson. Chilton then goes to Halfords to team up with Shedden - like in real life, when Collard joins Steven Kane at Motorbase and Team RAC stays with Turkington and Onslow Cole, instead of Stephen Jelley, who joins Robertshaw Racing alongside Harry Vaulkhard.
Giovinardi retains the title, with Plato, Neal, Jackson, Thompson and Turkington in tow. Shedden, Turner and Chilton come after them in the order. Vauxhall win the Constructors, and SEAT, after coming 2nd again, pull out at the end of 2008 like in real life. James Thompson joins Dynamics in 2009, and it follows real life from there.
