The Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship sped into its annual summer break in action-packed style this past weekend (June 6-7) as Dan Cammish, Ash Sutton and Charles Rainford charged to victory at Oulton Park.

Making its annual trip to the Cheshire circuit, the country’s biggest and best motorsport spectacle had everyone on the edge of their seats as the battle for supremacy intensified across three frenetic contests.

As per recent weekends, Saturday’s Qualifying Race delivered captivating entertainment with Cammish claiming his first triumph of the season and and in doing so, secured pole position for the first of Sunday’s three races.

Laser Tools Racing with MB Motorsport’s Árón Taylor-Smith had triumphed on the road but was handed a five-second time penalty for a restart procedure infraction, which dropped him to fifth and promoted Josh Cook, Sutton and Tom Ingram up behind Cammish.

NAPA Racing UK’s Cammish would go on to convert pole position into a maiden win of the season in Sunday’s opener, only after absorbing a torrent of early pressure from Cook and reigning champion Ingram.

Controlling the pace from the front of the field, the Ford Focus Titanium driver was wheel-perfect and as the race wore on, he steadily pulled clear to triumph. Behind, Cook and Ingram scrapped all the way to the chequered flag to round out the rostrum.

Race two saw one of the most dominant victories in the modern era of the BTCC as championship leader Sutton blitzed the opposition to tally his fifth win of the campaign.

Starting from seventh on the grid, the four-time title winner utilised having a good amount of TOCA Turbo Boost and the soft tyre to quickly move up to first and from there, he checked out to win by more than 19 seconds.

As Sutton stamped his authority out front, Ingram and Cammish produced valiant display’s on the less favourable hard tyre to finish on the podium in second and third respectively.

WSR’s Rainford then closed out the weekend by becoming the second repeat winner of the campaign as he cruised to victory ahead of the Team VERTU Hyundais of Collard and Ingram.

Despite having to contend with two safety car periods for separate incidents at Old Hall and Cascades, the BMW 330i M Sport driver was wheel-perfect to rise from third to first in the early laps on the soft tyre.

Leaving Oulton Park, Sutton holds a 48-point advantage over Ingram at the head of the Drivers’ Championship, with Cammish, Rainford and Collard filling the remaining spots inside the top-five going into mid-season break.

As they have done since the opening weekend, Sutton’s Alliance Racing/Ford and NAPA Racing UK top both the Manufacturers’/Constructors’ and Teams’ tables. In the Independents’, Mikey Doble and LKQ Euro Car Parts with Power Maxed Racing continue to lead the way.

And after claiming all three wins at Oulton Park in his Audi A3 Saloon, Dexter Patterson now tops the standings in the Jack Sears Trophy.
