The BTCC returned from its mid-season break with action aplenty at Knockhill, as fans were treated to three different winners across the weekend:
The weekend got off to a thrilling start, as Hill converted his pole position into an early lead and was in front for most of the opening lap. But the rear-driven BMW is notorious for taking a while to get heat into its front tyres, a fact thatThis he did with an outrageous pass around the outside of Hill through turn one that he made stick for the next few laps.
Hill eventually made his superior pace count, overtaking Sutton and pulling 3.6sec clear by the flag.man, who again suffered from contact, but he managed to hold on to keep second place. As Sutton quipped afterwards: “I tell you what, I think I need to see a chiropractor after that one! We picked up a little bit of damage with the big contact from Jake into the last corner and then that was topped off by Colin [Turkington] as well. I gave it my best and took it to him at the start. Ultimately, did we have enough to put it up there at the end? Probably not. Jake [Hill] looked strong, he looked strong in qualifying. I accepted my battle with that one and focused on Colin.
But unlike in the first round, Sutton couldn’t pull away from the chasing pack. Hill made a further mistake and slipped to third behind Turkington, before the Team BMW driver tidied things up in the latter stages of the race.
