Share of the spoils at Oulton Park

Seven different winners from first 12 races of 2026

Dan Cammish became the seventh different race winner so far in the 2026 Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship following his triumph at Oulton Park earlier today (7 June), before standings leader Ash Sutton added to his tally and Charles Rainford claimed his second victory of the campaign.

It was the second successive BTCC weekend that boasted three different race winners from the trio of races, with more than half of the field having now reached the rostrum in the opening 12 races.

The UK’s most exciting and competitive championship showed its hand yet again in front of a huge crowd at the picturesque Cheshire venue with the title race starting to take shape ahead of the annual mid-season break.

Cammish’s win was a pivotal one for the Yorkshireman as he fired up his championship challenge with the biggest points haul over the course of the weekend.

Four-time champion Sutton dominated the second encounter, winning his fifth race of the season by more than 19 seconds from the chasing pack.

Rainford then became only the second repeat winner of 2026 after he made a stellar move for victory in the reverse grid finale.

With the season pausing slightly earlier than usual – after four of ten events – it’s Sutton leading the Drivers’ standings from Tom Ingram, who himself scored a hugely impressive podium hat-trick around the 2.26-mile circuit.

Alliance Racing/Ford and NAPA Racing UK top both the Manufacturers’/Constructors’ and Teams’ tables.

Mikey Doble and his LKQ Euro Car Parts with Power Maxed Racing outfit lead the chase for Independents’ honours, whilst a clean sweep of Jack Sears Trophy wins for Dexter Patterson pushed the Audi man to the summit of those standings.

The next event on the BTCC calendar takes place at Thruxton on 25/26 July.

Cammish claims maiden Oulton Park victory

NAPA Racing UK's Cammish took victory in the opener at Oulton Park, taking his first tin top triumph at the much-loved track.

Ford driver Cammish continued his impressive weekend – following victory in Saturday's Qualifying Race – with a lights-to-flag success in race one.

Much like the 'Race to Pole', Cammish was pressured home by Josh Cook’s Speedworks Corolla Racing Toyota with the pair duelling it out for much of the contest.

Cammish's 17th BTCC win had been a while coming after a mixed start to his 2026 campaign, but the former championship runner-up kickstarted his title chase in Cheshire.

Cook's second place wasn't straightforward as he firstly had contact with four-time champion Sutton in the #116 NAPA Racing UK Ford Focus Titanium, and in the latter stages of the race he was hounded home by the Hyundai of reigning champion Ingram.

Team VERTU's Ingram completed the podium ahead of the Toyota of Laser Tools Racing with MB Motorsport's Árón Taylor-Smith, with the latter also securing the Independent Drivers' win.

Sutton strikes to take fifth victory of 2026

NAPA Racing UK's Sutton stood victorious in Round 11, extending his championship lead with his fifth triumph of the season.

Running on the soft Goodyear tyre and with an increased allocation of TOCA Turbo Boost, Ford man Sutton was able to weave his way up the order from seventh on the grid, eventually slipping by old adversary Ingram (Team VERTU – Hyundai) and teammate Cammish (NAPA Racing UK – Ford).

In truth, Cammish let Sutton by, knowing that his superior pace was likely to tell as the race progressed and the latter romped on to win by more than 19 seconds.

Cammish and Ingram performed admirably on the Goodyear hard tyre, not only holding onto to second and third, but by pulling away from the chasing pack.

Ingram eventually got by the race one winner to score valuable championship points, with Cammish completing the podium positions.

The Toyota of Laser Tools Racing with MB Motorsport's Taylor-Smith was the cork in the bottle behind, the Irishman not being able to show the race-winning pace that he had previously.

WSR BMW's Daryl De Leon spent most of the race trying to get past, and he eventually made his move stick in the closing laps to take fourth overall and the Independents' win.

Rainford races clear to reach top step of the rostrum

WSR BMW's Rainford took victory in the finale at Oulton Park, becoming the second repeat winner of the season so far.

Restart Racing's Chris Smiley started the race on pole, but it was always going to be a tall order to hang on at the front with a gaggle of Goodyear soft tyre runners behind him.

Rainford's BMW 330i M Sport fired off the line and was quickly into second on the approach to Old Hall Corner for the first time.

There was drama behind as the Toyota of Taylor-Smith slid luridly through the first turn on cold tyres. As the Laser Tools Racing with MB Motorsport driver tried to correct the error he collected the #33 Mercedes of Adam Morgan – ending both of their races on the spot.

A safety car was called to retrieve the stricken #50 Toyota Corolla and Morgan's Cataclean Plato Racing machine, with Rainford poised to make his move for the lead shortly after the restart.

Rainford got a great exit from Old Hall and completed a daring move around the outside of Smiley’s Hyundai before they reached Cascades.

The Team VERTU Hyundai duo of Ricky Collard and Ingram were next by the fading Hyundai of Smiley as they looked well positioned to attack Rainford ahead of them.

There was some respite during a second safety car period when Tom Chilton (Team VERTU – Hyundai) made contact with Lewis Selby's NAPA Racing UK Ford Focus Titanium, with both cars ending up in the barrier at Cascades.

At the restart, Rainford had the measure of his pursuers and claimed his second win of the season in commanding fashion from Collard and Ingram.

Sutton strikes to take fifth victory of 2026

NAPA Racing UK's Ash Sutton stood victorious in Round 11 of the 2026 Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship at Oulton Park, extending his championship lead with his fifth triumph of the campaign.

Running on the soft Goodyear tyre and with an improved allocation of TOCA Turbo Boost, Sutton was able to weave his way up the order from seventh on the grid, eventually slipping by old adversary Tom Ingram (Team VERTU) and teammate Dan Cammish (NAPA Racing UK).

Cammish and Ingram performed admirably on the Goodyear hard tyre, not only holding onto to second and third, but by pulling away from the chasing pack.

Ingram eventually got by the race one winner to score valuable championship points with Cammish completing the podium positions.

WSR's Daryl De Leon spent most of the race trying to get past, and he made his move stick in the closing laps to take fourth overall and the Independents' win.

Mikey Doble (LKQ Euro Car Parts with Power Maxed Racing) and Gordon Shedden (Laser Tools Racing with MB Motorsport) relegated Taylor-Smith further down the order, whilst Ricky Collard (Team VERTU), Dexter Patterson and Charles Rainford (WSR) rounded out the top ten on the road.

NAPA Racing UK's Sam Osborne was later elevated to tenth when Taylor-Smith was handed a post-race ten second penalty for his involvement in an incident involving Team VERTU's Tom Chilton.

Cammish takes maiden Oulton Park victory

NAPA Racing UK's Dan Cammish took victory in Round 10 of the 2026 Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship at Oulton Park, taking his first tin top triumph at the Cheshire venue.

Cammish continued his impressive weekend so far – following victory in yesterday's Qualifying Race – with a lights-to-flag success in Sunday's opener.

Much like the 'Race to Pole', Cammish was pressured home by Speedworks Corolla Racing's Josh Cook with the pair duelling it out for much of the contest.

Cammish's 18th BTCC win has been a long time coming after a mixed start to his 2026 campaign, but the talented Yorkshireman will be hoping that his performances around the 2.26-mile circuit will kickstart his championship challenge.

Cook's second place wasn't straightforward as he firstly had to contend with contact involving four-time champion Ash Sutton, and in the latter stages of the race he was hounded home by reigning champion Tom Ingram.

Team VERTU's Ingram completed the podium ahead of Laser Tools Racing with MB Motorsport's Árón Taylor-Smith, with the latter also securing the Independent Drivers' win.

The LKQ Euro Car Parts with Power Maxed Racing duo of Aiden Moffat and Mikey Doble enjoyed a fantastic and respectful battle for fifth and sixth as they brought home solid points for the Audi A3 Saloon squad.

NAPA Racing UK's Sutton had a topsy-turvy race, which included an initial battle for second, a drop to eighth following the aforementioned contact with Cook, before scrapping back up the order and then back down again after going straight on at the chicane during a battle with Cataclean Plato Racing's Adam Morgan.

Sutton eventually had to settle for a decent seventh whilst Morgan's race ended in the pitlane with a mechanical issue striking his Mercedes A35 Saloon.

Tom Chilton (Team VERTU), Chris Smiley (Restart Racing) and Daryl De Leon (WSR) completed the top ten positions.

Race 2 commences at 14:55 while the finale takes place at 17:20, with all the action being screened live across the UK on ITV4 and across the world via Racer (North America only) and YouTube.

Cammish races to pole at Oulton Park

BTCC delivers yet another dramatic Qualifying Race

NAPA Racing UK's Dan Cammish claimed his first ever Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship Qualifying Race win at Oulton Park earlier today (6 June) after inheriting the triumph from on-track leader Árón Taylor-Smith.

As per recent race weekends, the action kicked off almost immediately with Team VERTU's Tom Chilton going off at high speed on the approach to Island Bend with cars getting bunched up on the first lap, whilst contact involving James Dorlin (Restart Racing), Gordon Shedden (Laser Tools Racing with MB Motorsport) and Dan Rowbottom (Cataclean Plato Racing) left the latter pair in the pitlane with issues.

More was to follow on the second tour as Nic Hamilton's Team VERTU Hyundai spun off and into the barrier at Island Bend.

A lengthy safety car period followed with the critical moment of the contest taking place even before racing was back underway as long-time leader Taylor-Smith continued weaving his Laser Tools Racing with MB Motorsport Toyota after the safety car lights had extinguished.

This was an unfortunate but clear breach of the regulations, resulting in a five-second time penalty, ultimately handing the lead to Cammish's #27 Ford Focus Titanium.

Cammish was made to work hard for the victory, however, with Speedworks Corolla Racing's Josh Cook keeping him honest until the chequered flag.

There was another pulsating battle behind between two BTCC champions – Ash Sutton (NAPA Racing UK) and Tom Ingram (Team VERTU) – as the pair swapped paint on a number of occasions.

The duo had already disposed of Mikey Doble's LKQ Euro Car Parts with Power Maxed Racing Audi A3 Saloon before continuing their race long battle, which later included heavy contact from Ingram at the final corner on lap eight of 13.

Ingram recognised the error and immediately let Sutton back past with the title protagonists eventually finishing third and fourth in the order.

Taylor-Smith's penalty pushed him down to fifth, ahead of Doble, whilst Cataclean Plato Racing's Adam Morgan scrapped brilliantly to claim seventh.

The two Audis of Dexter Patterson (Steel Seal with Power Maxed Racing) and Aiden Moffat (LKQ Euro Car Parts with Power Maxed Racing) were eighth and ninth respectively, whilst Restart Racing's Chris Smiley drove well from 16th on the grid to finish tenth.

Rounds 10, 11 and 12 of the 2026 Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship take place at Oulton Park tomorrow with the action getting underway in the UK on ITV4 from 10:45, with the races also being beamed around the world on Racer TV (North America) and the BTCC YouTube Channel (Rest of the World).

Dan Cammish, NAPA Racing UK, said: "A great way to start the weekend. The guys have given me a great car straight out of the box, I felt really confident and happy with the car. It's a real shame what happened to Árón there but I could see him weaving, so I'll take my opportunity and we get to start at the front tomorrow. It will be tough (with the lack of boost) but that's the way it is. It's the first win I've had in this new format and it's nice to get this one... let's hope we can convert it tomorrow."

A stellar season opener at Donington Park left Moffat in the giddy heights of third in the overall Drivers' standings and he followed that up with another decent showing at Brands Hatch.

There was a bump in the road at Snetterton last time out but with a full quote of boost returning for the LKQ Euro Car Parts with Power Maxed Racing car it seems like the Audis are back on song at Oulton Park.

The Scotsman's late flyer propelled the #16 machine ahead of Team VERTU's Tom Chilton and Restart Racing's Chris Smiley on the timesheets, with Moffat's teammate Mikey Doble next in the order – underlining the prowess of the new-for-2026 Audi A3 Saloon.

Times improved throughout the session with the track drying following an earlier sparkling of rain, as the final laps produced fully committed efforts on Goodyear dry tyres.

NAPA Racing UK's Ash Sutton was fifth ahead of James Dorlin in sixth, making this one of Restart Racing's best sessions of the season so far as the Independent outfit looks to kickstart its 2026 campaign in the Hyundai i30N.

Long time pacesetter Dan Cammish eventually had to settle for seventh in the #27 Ford Focus Titanium, whilst Steel Seal with Power Maxed Racing's Dexter Patterson made it three Audis inside the top eight.

Reigning champion Tom Ingram was ninth in the #80 Team VERTU machine whilst WSR's Daryl De Leon rounded out the top ten.

20 cars took to the track with Speedworks Corolla Racing's Max Buxton currently sitting out today's proceedings through illness.

After Free Practice, the finishing order is split into two groups, odd-finishing-numbers (Group 1) and even-finishing-numbers (Group 2), for a 15-minute qualifying session to set their fastest times.

One group in particular will be stacked with talent later today with the likes of Moffat being joined by Sutton, Cammish, Ingram, Ricky Collard (Team VERTU), Josh Cook (Speedworks Corolla Racing), Gordon Shedden (Laser Tools Racing with MB Motorsport) and Dan Rowbottom (Cataclean Plato Racing).

The group with the fastest qualifying time will occupy the odd-numbered grid positions for the Qualifying Race, ordered by their respective qualifying times. The other group will occupy the even-numbered grid positions, also ordered by qualifying times.

15 minutes after the qualifying session for Group 2 has concluded, the standard grid procedure for a race start begins, and the pit lane opens. The finishing order of the shorter 10-lap ‘Race to Pole’ will determine the grid for the first of Sunday’s traditional trio of races.

Half-points are awarded for the Qualifying Race. There are no bonus points for leading a lap, the fastest lap, or for pole position for the Qualifying Race, whereas the bonus points for leading a lap and the fastest lap are still available on Sunday.

Qualifying and the Qualifying Race can be found LIVE on the ITV Sport YouTube Channel worldwide from 13:50 later today.

Speedworks Corolla Racing ready for home challenge

Speedworks Corolla Racing heads into its home event of the 2026 Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship season this coming weekend full of optimism and determination, as the Cheshire-based squad prepares to tackle the iconic Oulton Park Island circuit this weekend (6/7 June).

Located less than 20 minutes from the team’s headquarters, Oulton Park has long held special significance for Speedworks Corolla Racing, with the team eager to deliver a strong performance in front of home support at one of Britain’s most challenging and characterful racing circuits.

Following a hard-fought weekend at Snetterton, where the team continued to demonstrate resilience and encouraging pace despite difficult conditions for the Corolla GR Sport package, confidence remains high heading into a venue that traditionally suits both the characteristics of the Toyota and the strengths of its driver line-up.

Fast, narrow and unforgiving, the Oulton Park Island circuit remains one of the most old-school layouts on the BTCC calendar. With minimal run-off, high-speed direction changes and the heavy braking zone into the Island Hairpin following the long acceleration run out of Cascades, precision and commitment are critical throughout the lap.

Encouragingly for Speedworks Corolla Racing, the Corolla GR Sport package has historically performed strongly around Oulton Park, where chassis balance and driver ability can often outweigh any performance deficit.

Josh Cook arrives at the team’s home circuit aiming to return firmly to the fight at the sharp end of the grid following several encouraging performances already this season. Having consistently demonstrated front-running pace throughout the opening rounds of the championship, the experienced campaigner will be targeting a strong haul of points around a circuit that rewards commitment and attacking race craft.

Meanwhile, rookie Max Buxton continues to make steady progress during his debut BTCC campaign. Following several encouraging performances at recent rounds, including impressive race pace and overtaking moves at Snetterton, the young charger heads to Oulton Park looking to continue building momentum and further establish himself within the ultra-competitive midfield battles.

With morale high inside the camp and confidence growing in the development of the Corolla GR Sport package, Speedworks Corolla Racing arrives at Oulton eager to convert potential into silverware in front of family, friends, partners and supporters.

Christian Dick, Team Principal, Speedworks Corolla Racing, said: “Oulton Park is always a really important weekend for everyone at Speedworks. It’s our home circuit, and naturally there’s a huge amount of pride in performing well there in front of our supporters and partners.

“It’s also a circuit that traditionally suits the Corolla package well. Oulton rewards driver confidence, commitment and a well-balanced chassis, and those are all areas where we feel strong. The atmosphere around the place is always brilliant and the whole team is looking forward to getting out there.”

Josh Cook, Driver, Speedworks Corolla Racing, said: “Oulton is one of those proper touring car circuits that every driver loves. It’s fast, narrow, unforgiving and there’s absolutely no room for mistakes, which makes racing there incredibly rewarding when you get things right.

“The Corolla has always felt strong around Oulton, and I think the characteristics of the circuit suit the package well. We’ve shown enough pace already this season to know we can fight towards the front, so hopefully we can put together a really strong weekend at the team’s home event.”

Max Buxton, Driver, Speedworks Corolla Racing, said: “I’m really looking forward to Oulton Park because it’s such an iconic circuit and one, I’ve always enjoyed driving. From everything I’ve experienced so far in BTCC, circuits like Oulton really reward confidence and commitment, so it should be an exciting challenge.

“I feel like I’ve continued to make progress every weekend so far this season and Snetterton was another important learning experience. The goal now is to keep building momentum, continue improving my qualifying pace and get stuck in again.”

WSR target more success at Oulton Park

A re-energised WSR team continue to push for Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship success at Oulton Park this weekend (6/7 June) as the series moves to Cheshire for the fourth event of the season.
 
The 18-time title winners hold second place in the Teams’ championship after a fast and consistent start to the season, the highlights of which were victory for Charles Rainford and two podium finishes for team-mate Daryl De Leon at Snetterton last time out.
 
Rainford is third in the Drivers’ points table after his victory, which was the second of his BTCC career and was accompanied by the best weekend total of his career (52 points) during an event at which he was the top-scoring driver overall.
 
The BMW 330i M Sport driver’s results at Snetterton also lifted him to fourth in the Independents’ standings, just three points away from the series lead.
 
The 27-year-old from Horsham now returns to a circuit where he mounted the podium in the Porsche Carrera Cup in 2022 and was a top-10 finisher in his rookie BTCC season last year.
 
Team-mate De Leon holds third place in the Independents’ standings – only two points behind the leader – and sixth in the overall championship following his two third-place finishes at Snetterton.
 
They were his first podium finishes of the season and were, like Rainford, accompanied by his best-ever weekend points haul (41).
 
The Anglo-Filipino, who is based in Cambridgeshire, was a double winner at Oulton Park in the Radical UK Cup when it supported the BTCC in 2023 and last year used the weekend to increase his lead in the Jack Sears Trophy, a contest in which he would be crowned champion later in the year.
 
WSR’s record at Oulton Park is especially strong with 19 race wins, including a treble win and an all-BMW podium in 2023.

Trophies the target as Cataclean Plato Racing heads to Oulton Park

Marking the final stop on the calendar before the Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship annual summer break, drivers Dan Rowbottom and Adam Morgan travel to the picturesque Cheshire venue, a happy hunting ground for the duo as they chase glory in their ever-improving Mercedes-AMG A35 Saloons this weekend (6/7 June).

The race-winning pair have plenty to be buoyant about too as the team heads into the weekend having enjoyed its strongest showing of the season last time out at Snetterton, where Rowbottom and Morgan each tallied a hat-trick of points finishes. 

Renowned for producing close-quarter action, the 2.26-mile Island layout of Oulton Park is popular amongst fans and drivers alike; not least for Rowbottom as it was there in 2021 that he claimed his first-ever BTCC race win.

Having gone on to establish himself as one of the series’ leading lights since then, the 37-year-old is eager to make his mark and get amongst the podium places as he bids to snare a first trophy of 2026.

At his local circuit, Morgan has also enjoyed some standout moments at Oulton Park, with the Lancastrian scoring one win and five further podiums down the years. Like Rowbottom, he too would dearly like to add to those accolades over the course of the weekend. 

Track action will begin on Saturday morning with a 40-minute practice session at 10:30 before both drivers contest Qualifying at 14:00, and the all-new Qualifying Race from 15:05 later that afternoon.

Sunday at Oulton Park will see the battle for top honours with race one scheduled to take place at 12:25, race two at 14:55 and race three at 17:20. All three contests will be broadcast live on ITV4 and ITVX in the UK, the Racer Network in North America and the BTCC YouTube Channel anywhere else in the world.

Jason Plato, Cataclean Plato Racing Team Principal: “I think I speak for everyone when I say that we’re all really looking forward to Oulton Park this weekend. We made a really good step with the car at Snetterton and I feel as though that should put us in good stead going into this one.

“We’re really honing in on the chassis, and Oulton Park is a great place to test just that. If Dan and Adam can hook things up on Saturday, I’d like to think we can be in the mix for some top results on Sunday.”

Dan Rowbottom, #32 Cataclean Plato Racing: “I felt like Snetterton was the real shot in the arm we all needed and since then everyone has been working flat-out back at base to ensure we can come out and hit the ground running this weekend.

“Oulton is probably one of the pivotal circuits we visit for having TOCA Turbo Boost; we’ve got the full allocation available so we have to maximise that, especially on Saturday. It’s going to be as fierce as ever out there but I’m optimistic we can head into the summer break on a high.”

Adam Morgan, #33 Cataclean Plato Racing: “I’m fully focused on getting a podium this weekend. We were in the mix for one at Snetterton but the cards sadly didn’t fall our way; so naturally I’m eager to right that wrong.

“As a circuit, Oulton Park is one of the best that we visit and its somewhere I’ve always enjoyed driving, not least because its not too far from home. Every time we get in this car we’re improving things so I’m excited to see what we can achieve before the real work starts during the break.”
