♋Redline R✃acing's Dino Zamparelli has extended his Porsche Carrera Cup GB championship lead over Tio Ellinas after dominating race one at Silverstone.

Zamparelli started the opening race from pole position and led every lap of the 28-lap encounter to secure his fourth victory of the 2018 season, moving ওhim further out of💖 reach from his nearest title rivals.

It was also Z✨amparelli's fifth career Porsche win at Silverstone, maintaining his imperious record around the Grand Prix venue.

"With pole position on the l𓆉eft hand side, my main concern was getting through turn one in the lead, but I got a great start and was able to get across quܫickly," said Zamparelli.

"I got the gap early on and it was all about controlling the race from the🌌re, using all my experience to make sure I made no mistakes. The Redline Racing Nationwide car was awesoღme to drive. It's been a perfect weekend so far and we want more success from fourth in race two."

While Zamparelli was able to romp away at the head of th꧙e field to an eventual winning margin of almost four-seconds, Slidesports Engineering's Ellinas was unable to match the searing performance of his title rival as the former F1 test-driver instead had to fight off the attentions of Tom Wrigley and George Gamble.

Having survived🌱 lap-after-lap of asserted pressure from the JTR 911 Cup car of Wrigley, Ellinas eventually broke free in second position, but was too far back to launch any sort of atta🥂ck on the race leader.

Wrigley consolidated his position on the podium in third, while Gamb🐼le settled for fourth ahead of Dan Harper in fifth.

Will Bratt finished in sixth after late contact with Lewis Plato at Luffield corner saw IN2 Racing driver move ahead of Plato. That incident dropped Plato back down to eighth behind Pro-Am winner Dan Vaughn, who fiᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ⁤⁤⁤⁤ᩚ𒀱ᩚᩚᩚnished in seventh overall for Motorbase Performance.

Dan Welജch was ninth, while Seb Perez recovered back up the order to salvage a top-ten finish following a slow🌳 start.

Peter Kyle-Henney con♕verted his Am pole position into the cat꧋egory win ahead of his chief rival Peter Mangion, the pair finishing 14th and 15th respectively.
