BTCC.net are reporting that Stephen Jelley and Robert Collard aren't best of pals at the moment after an incident where they collided during the opening rounds at Brands Hatch this weekend.

Some highlights:

?My car?s power steering had broken and I was keeping to one side to let the others past ? I was probably going to pit on that lap but instead Jelley just piled into me from behind. I don?t know what he was thinking. Jelley needs to go to Specsavers and sort his eyesight out.?

?I?m not a mind reader. I was right up behind him and he suddenly braked about 50 metres too early. You can?t react to something you don?t know about,? said Jelley. If he was moving over he should have put on the left indicator and slowed down for us to go past, but it shows quite clearly on TV that he didn?t pull over properly.?


?And if he can?t cope without power steering he needs to man up a bit.?
