Overview
- BTCC officials on Sunday disqualified Tom Ingram from Race 1 after the new Closed Loop Boost Scrutineering system flagged significant overboost, handing victory to Mikey Doble.
- The automated boost system alerts teams in real time and cuts power as pay back, with time penalties or exclusion if a car finishes while still in penalty.
- Ash Sutton won Race 2 from the front after Ingram pitted with an alternator fault, continuing his rebound from a qualifying‑race non‑finish.
- Sutton then charged from eighth to win the reverse‑grid finale and now leads the championship after the opening weekend.
- Track‑limits and minor overboost penalties reshuffled several results, with sanctions for Dan Rowbottom, Dan Cammish, Adam Morgan, and Daryl De Leon.
