The idea came to me while writing a review of the season, naturally one starts with the Champion extoling the virtues of the winner who would have also taken whatever Class he was competing in. Having commented on the Champion one then turns to the individual Class victors.
Class 'A' , Class 'B' Class 'C' etc, however, this time we have already done 'B' because our Champion had clinched that on his way to overall victory, so we turn to the runner-up for interest, which seems slightly demeaning.
My suggestion would be that no matter from which class the overall Champion the comes from the Class should be awarded to the second placed driver, after all being Champion over rides a mere Class win. This spreads the silverware a little further, and recognises the person who the Champ had to beat to score the points.
I understand that the Challenge is a friendly series noted for it's camaraderie, so surely the Champion would not begrudge the Class win going to a rival?
Of course I could just go back to minding my own business.
