The 2025 TOCA Night of Champions at Silverstone in November will celebrate the best moments from this season, and the Fans' Choice Award gives you the power to decide which achievement deserves recognition. This year's theme focuses on 'New Winners' – and what a year it's been, with four drivers claiming their first-ever BTCC victories, the most since 2018.
Your vote will determine who takes home this prestigious award. Will it be the performance itself, or the journey that led to that unforgettable moment? The choice is yours, and today we're highlighting another breakthrough victory: Mikey Doble's commanding lights-to-flag maiden win at Snetterton.
Motor Parts Direct with Power Maxed Racing's Mikey Doble has taken a memorable maiden victory with a lights to flag triumph in Round 9 of the Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship at Snetterton.
It's 1001 days since an Independent team has taken an overall race win in the BTCC and it's the first for the Power Maxed Racing squad since Jason Plato at Brands Hatch in 2019... 156 races ago.
Doble – starting from pole position – never put a wheel wrong, even when he had four-time BTCC champion Ash Sutton and multiple race winner Josh Cook closing him down.
Sutton made an outrageous start, coming from tenth on the grid through to fourth on the opening lap, with Cook's Honda immediately ahead of him.
The Goodyear soft-shod duo of Cook and Sutton were soon into second and third respectively as the old friends swapped positions on a couple of occasions.
Sutton eventually made the move for second stick and he attacked Doble's Vauxhall Astra in the closing laps, but the #116 ran wide at the Wilson hairpin on the penultimate lap and the fight was over.
The podium was completed by Sutton and Cook, but there was an even bigger headline behind as Team VERTU's Tom Ingram stormed from 24th on the grid to an incredible fourth at the finish.
NAPA Racing UK's Sam Osborne was a fantastic fifth, ahead of team-mate Dan Cammish.
There was another intra-team battle for seventh as LKQ Euro Car Parts Racing with WSR's Charles Rainford continued to attack his championship winning team-mate Jake Hill. The pair crossed the line separated by just 0.085s as the young rookie got the better of the #1 Laser Tools Racing with MB Motorsport man.
Ronan Pearson (TOYOTA GAZOO Racing UK with IAA) and Aiden Moffat (LKQ Euro Car Parts Racing with WSR) finalised the top ten positions.
