"Blessing and a curse": The reality of taking on Sutton from within his own team

To define ‘enigmatic’ in the context of the British Touring Car Championship, look no further than Dan Cammish. Not, you understand, because of the man himself; he’s a refreshingly open, honest, self-analytical chap. It’s more his results.

In 2023, when Ash Sutton swept to the title in the lead NAPA-liveried Ford Focus ST, Cammish took the sister car to sixth in the standings. Last year, when the Alliance Racing squad’s machinery had been eclipsed by West Surrey Racing’s BMWs and Excelr8 Motorsport’s Hyundais, Sutton slipped to third, while Cammish rose to equal the points tally of fourth-placed Colin Turkington. He was just 19 points adrift of Sutton, with 93 more than in 2023, and even outscored his 2019 season in the Team Dynamics Honda, when he came within a lap and a half of the title.
