Ingram Extends BTCC Lead as Chilton and Cammish Share Donington Wins

He leaves Donington 32 points clear after sealing the finale to tighten his grip on the title fight.

Overview

  • Tom Chilton ended a 14-year wait for pole in wet qualifying and fronted a Team VERTU Hyundai 1-2 with Tom Ingram as track‑limit calls and tyre choices shuffled key rivals.
  • Chilton converted pole into the Race 1 victory ahead of Ingram, with Dan Rowbottom taking third after the Hyundai pair briefly traded the lead for a bonus point.
  • Dan Cammish won a chaotic Race 2 that finished under the safety car after a sudden downpour sent frontrunners into the gravel, with Ingram fifth and Ash Sutton recovering to eighth.
  • Ingram climbed from fifth to win the finale after an intense duel with Sutton following a late safety-car restart, stretching his championship advantage to 32 points heading into the penultimate round.
  • Power Maxed Racing fielded loaned Cupra Leons following a recent workshop fire, and Mikey Doble delivered the marque’s best qualifying result by taking third and reaching Q3.
