Hitech GP ace Dunne has been the class of the field in the revamped category this year but couldn't quite seal the crown with a round to go at Silverstone last time out as Gray claimed a win and the title contenders clashed several times.
That meant Gray retained the remotest possible chance of snatching the title at Brands, provided he qualified 17th or lower and won all three races, therefore earning sufficient bonus points from places gained in the reversed-grid contest to overhaul Dunne.
