The sixth round of the British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) at Knockhill in Scotland at the end of July was a huge success for the BMW drivers. They took two wins, six podiums overall, and the top spot in the driver’s championship. Jake Hill (GBR) of ROKiT MB Motorsport celebrated victory with his #24 BMW 330e M Sport in the first of the three races.


He followed this up with two second places on the podium. Victory in race three went to George Gamble (GBR) of Car Gods with Ciceley Motorsport. Gamble finished in P5 and P7 in the first two races.

 

Colin Turkington (GBR) of Team BMW finished in third place on the podium twice, and was fourth in the final race. That saw Turkington take the lead in the BTCC driver’s standings, with 227 points.



 Hill moved up into fourth place overall (213 points), adding his name to the list of possible title winners. With 486 points, BMW leads the manufacturers’ standings by 60 points. The series returns to action at Snetterton (GBR) this weekend.
