Description

Race 1

Team Toyota GB's Tom Ingram has taken a third British Touring Car Championship race victory of the season after getting the better of Jason Plato during the Silverstone opener.
The Speedworks Motorsport prepared Corolla was able to assemble a 4.3s winning margin ahead of Plato by the end of the race. Plato, in turn, enjoyed a similar margin back to the BTC Racing Honda of Chris Smiley in third, with Josh Cook following his team mate home in fourth position.
In terms of the championship, BMW Pirtek Racing's Andrew Jordan took advantage of yet more misfortune for points leader Colin Turkington after finishing the opening race in eighth position.
The reigning three-time champion fell down to 25th following his dramatic spin but recovered back up the order in finish in 14th, scoring two valuable championship points in the process.

Race 2

Team Toyota GB's Tom Ingram took his second British Touring Car Championship race victory of the day as the championship battle behind reached boiling point during the unpredictable conditions at Silverstone. The Toyota Corolla driver crossed the line 1.021s ahead of championship leader Colin Turkington when the race was red-flagged with five-laps to go as the rain shower quickly intensified.
While Cammish managed to finish in third behind Ingram and Turkington, Jordan fell down to eighth, meaning the 2013 champion drops to third in the championship battle, 16 points behind Turkington. While Cammish managed to finish in third behind Ingram and Turkington, Jordan fell down to eighth, meaning the 2013 champion drops to third in the championship battle, 16 points behind Turkington.

Race 3

Jack Goff has delivered Team HARD a shock first ever British Touring Car Championship race victory following a dry-wet reverse grid thriller at Silverstone.
Having put himself into a race winning position, Goff did face a brief challenge for the victory from the Laser Tools Racing Infiniti of Aiden Moffat, who also chose to pit early for the wet tyre. However, Goff's route to victory was made easier when Moffat spun when directly behind the race leading Volkswagen CC on on lap 15. Moffat ultimately recovered to finish in second, while Honda's Matt Neal completed the podium order in third.
Crucially, Turkington has extended his championship advantage to 16-points ahead of Honda's Dan Cammish, who, in turn, is a point further ahead of Jordan.
