British Touring Car Championship rookie Charles Rainford became the West Surrey Racing BMW team’s third winner of the day with victory in the finale at Brands Hatch. From third on the grid, Rainford worked his way past the front-row-sitting team-mate Jake Hill and reversed-grid poleman Dan Rowbottom within just over a lap of the start, and held on throughout.

Jake Hill kickstarted his bid for a second successive British Touring Car Championship crown by sailing to victory in the first race of the day at Brands Hatch. Hill led home his team-mate within the West Surrey Racing-run BMW stable, the extremely impressive rookie Charles Rainford, to claim the honours by 0.662 seconds. From pole, it was no surprise that rear-wheel-drive traction propelled Hill into the lead at the start, nor that Rainford converted his front-row spot into second place.

Although this has lightened the cars by 55kg, it has negatively impacted the 3-Series in terms of ballast distribution.
