How Sutton extended his lead on an unpredicted Snetterton BTCC weekend

Well, that wasn’t predicted… The British Touring Car Championship experienced one of those weekends at Snetterton where its acknowledged title-winning Big Three – Ash Sutton, Tom Ingram, Jake Hill – all failed to win a race, and each suffered a setback. That threw the door open to victories for Dan Cammish, Dan Rowbottom and Mikey Doble, the last-named in particular eliciting an explosion of joy from down the ‘unfashionable’ end of the pitlane.

Yet the highest points scorer across the three races was Sutton, always maximising, constantly making the most of whatever he was faced with. And now the four-time champion has expanded his points cushion over Ingram from five points to 15 in his quest for a fifth title. Hill has faded to 40 adrift, although is still in third place.
