He had a strong day yesterday -he was up in the top ten, which was great to see.The man from March.That third car there, eclipsed at the moment,comes out of the slipstream.Dan repaired his own car after Croft,and that of Kieran Beaty,so I know Kieran wanted to thank him for that. He\'s been working hard.And Pooley side by side with Matt Knight.We\'ve got the 13, Chris Needham car, up there in the mix as well.The three top guys in the...Ryan McLeish getting very sideways there,the Scot in the 71 car.The first time we\'ve seen him on our ITV coverage.He\'s not a guest driver this week.I suppose you could technically call him a guest,but he\'s fully championship registeredand took a splendid win yesterday - overall win and race win.Overall on points.Sorry, Paul, gets a chance to get you in.That\'s Jack Parker!Oh, what\'s happened there?So, this was the start. They\'re all still warming the tyres up,ready for the lights to go green,which they do... around about now.And they get going.And then there was a car, wasn\'t there?Oh, I tell you what, that could\'ve ended up really nastyas it snaked up the grass.Yeah, I\'ll tell you what, the moment when the lights went outwas when Marcus Pett broke ranks.That was a very, very meticulous start from Marcus Pett.The blue car here is Tyler Read, top rookie,who looks like he\'s going down the inside of Daniel Pooley,so he\'s gonna make a space here.So, Dan Pooley has lost second position.It\'s Marcus Pett still out front. Matt Knight...I was saying to the drivers,"Don\'t go away if you\'re in the lead because you won\
