BTCC Snetterton - Nash v Collard in Pictures

They say a picture says a thousand words.... Here is the story of when Nash met Collard!



Collard leads race three through the Esses from Nash with Turkington close behind in third place.



Nash makes a botched overtaking attempt punting Collard off at high speed who collects the inncoent Stephen Jelley.



Both cars come to rest on the grass verge and marshalls are quickly on the scene.



Stephen Jelley is quickly out of his Team RAC BMW but there is a worryingly long wait for Collard to be extricated from his car.



Despite being a bit dazed I am pleased to report that Rob was fit enough to express his opinions, as only he can, of Nash's driving!



Collard trudges away ruing another lost victory as Nash leads the race in his absense.



Collard and Jelley compare notes. I bet Nash's ears are burning inside his helmet.



Stephen Jelley surveys the remains of his BMW.


The villain of the piece. Nash goes on to take his first BTCC race victory only for it later to be overturned by the stewards in favour of championship leader Colin Turkington.


Meanwhile, the busy marshalls clean up the remains of Jelley's BMW.
