2 out of 2 for Jake Hill.
Sam Osborne on reverse grid pole, only to go off after a collision with Aiden Moffat.
Chris Smiley out after colliding with Daryl DeLeon and Rob Huff.

20 years since his last BTCC win, surely a record for amount of time between wins?
As for that incident with Cook, it looked like Huff was ahead before he was forced off, but who knows. Also epic recoveries by Sutton and Ingram.

It is a record. The previous record holder was Dennis Leech with 18 years between his first 2 Wins in 1969 and his last win in 1987.

That's a huge shame, for him and for the series.High-speed Thruxton Next For WSR And BMW • BTCC

It's absolutely ridiculous that WSR is not supported well-enough by BMW for a consistent entry slate.

Fingers crossed Bobby Thompson won't miss any more meetings after Thruxton.

Jake Hill wins race 1 at Thruxton. He seems to be the only of the BMW drivers who’s really on top of the car this year. Turkington has been surprisingly off the pace everywhere but Brands.
Meanwhile the classic Minis are awesome and every race should be in them.

Yeah Jake Hill is storming it at the moment. His race starts are unbelievable, not just compared to the front wheel drive cars but to the other BMWs as well. If he qualifies somewhere near the front, you can be almost certain he'll lead into T1.

Leading 4 are absolutely flatout in race 2 so far.

Ingram’s victory overturned it seems. Passed DanCam by shortcutting the chicane and never gave back the place. 2 spot penalty so Hill wins again.

Storming drive by Sutton to take his 1st win of the year and 40th of his Career. Some great moves, and Dan Cam as well, 3 podiums in a day ain't bad at all.
Ingram was a man on a mission in that one. Absolutely epic moves round the outside at the chicane. Personally I'd say his move on Morgan was fair game, both cut the chicane, plus Ingram was already ahead before the contact.
Just 1 week before we go again at Oulton.
Edit: My bad, 2 weeks before we get to Oulton (22nd - 23rd June)

Glad it was a couple of exciting races. Make up for the dullfest of Oulton. Hopefully it rains.

Oulton can be hit or miss. Either 3 precessional races with little action. Or 3 action packed, borderline chaotic red flag-worthy races.
If it does rain, there's more potential for genuine racing 🤞. Plus with the improved Hybrid allocation and tyre choices, there's more variables to help such a thing potentially.

Nasty accident for Halstead off-camera.

I did wonder what happened for him to incur that level of damage. From the one camera shot we got, it was hard to tell where he crashed, but it almost looked like he rolled over.

30 sec penalty for Rowbo. Drops him to 15th. A bit lenient really, should’ve been placed last as that’s where they would’ve finished following the rules.
