BTCC Brands Indy to be run anti-clockwise?

Rumors began circulating last night that, the BTCC opener, happening this weekend *may* see the cars take to the Indy loop at Brands Hatch in the opposite direction to normal.

Initial leaks suggest that 32 cars all jostling for position on the series shortest laps creates too many incidents in the early part of the lap. 

By reversing the lap it would give te drivers a better chance to settle down before taking the - now right hand turn into Graham Hill Bend before the short uphill dash to the Druids hairpin and the downhill towards Paddock Hill Bend and the end of the lap.

Msporttalk belive that the day's opening practice session *may* see the cars run in the opposite direction to normal before race direction make a decision on the race direction. 

I'd like to thank my mole within the series who gets me these stories and snippets as they break. She is always number one with the news and, to protect her identity I call her April The First!

Thank-you.
