Description

Race 1

AmD Tuning's Sam Tordoff takes his first BTCC win of the 2019 season after producing a faultless lights-to-flag victory in race one at Thruxton. The Honda Civic Type-R driver started the opening race from pole position and led every lap ahead of fellow Honda runner Dan Cammish to record his first BTCC victory since Silverstone last season.
The AmD driver could afford to back off during the final corner to cross the line 0.4s ahead of Cammish, while Mac Tools Racing's Adam Morgan secured his second podium finish of 2019 in third.
BTC Racing's Josh Cook also found himself in the hunt for a podium result after latching onto the rear of Morgan's Mercedes A-Class, but ultimately had to settle for fourth ahead of Team BMW's lead runner Tom Oliphant in fifth.

Race 2

BTC Racing's Josh Cook moves back up to third in the BTCC drivers' standings after clinching his third win of the season in race two at Thruxton.
Cook started the second race from fourth on the grid, but profited from a poor start from Honda counterpart Dan Cammish to immediately slot in behind the two race leaders in third position. Cook picked up the perfect the slipstream from Tordoff and Morgan to leap ahead of the pair on the back straight heading towards the final chicane.
Cook crossed the line 1.9s ahead of Morgan in second, a further eight-seconds behind the race winner, Honda's Matt Neal performed a magnificent last gasp move to snatch a podium result away from Team BMW's Tom Oliphant right on the line.

Race 3

Dan Cammish clinches his first victory of the 2019 BTCC campaign after winning a thrilling reverse grid race at Thruxton. Cammish started the reverse grid race from second on the grid and dropped to third behind Team BMW's Tom Oliphant during the early stages but took his first win of the 2019 campaign.
With the Power Maxed Racing Vauxhall Astra of Rob Collard leading over half of the race from pole position, Cammish made the race winning move on lap ten of the race following a small error from Collard at Church corner.However, heavy rain towards the end threatened to turn the race upside down but Cammish was able to tip-toe his way through the challenging conditions to record his first win of 2019 ahead of Collard and Honda team mate Matt Neal in third.
