BMW Pirtek Racing's Andrew Jordan has clinched his sixth British Touring Car Championship race victory of ꦜthe seaso🅺n and moves within four-points of the championship lead after Colin Turkington hits trouble at Knockhill.

The BMW 330i M Sport driver star෴ted from second on the grid but immediately powered into the lead ahead of pole-sitter Rory Butcher before taking a 1.6s victory ahead of Honda's Dan Cammish.

Aside from taking his sixth win of the year, Jordan's title aspirations took an unexpected boost after his chief title rival ღand team mate Colin Turkington saw his race two hopes end in the gravel following contact with home hero Rory Butcher.

Just as Jordan had cemented his po🗹sition in the lead of the race, a daring lunge from Da𒁃n Cammish on Butcher for second place at the final hairpin on lap seven of the race spelled disaster for Turkington just three corners later.

Turkington had initially followed Cammish through and demoted the Honda of Butcher back to down fourth place. However, ཧin trying to rescue third position back from the reigning champion, Butcher made contact with Turkington, which sent the BMW into the gravel and down to 27th.

The Team BMW driver did manage to get g♉oing again but could only recover as high as 19th, meaning his once healthy championship lead has all but vanished with just seven races left🔯 to go.

AmD's Butcher maintained his composure to retain his spot on the podium after resisting the attentions of BMR Subaru's Senna Proctor, who maintaineܫd his strongest weekend of the year so far in fourth.

Tom Chilton and Tom Ingram finished lying astern in fifth and sixth, while Adamღ Morgan led Jason Plato and Josh Cook acros꧃s the line in seventh, eighth and ninth. 

Jake Hill completed the top-ten🌜 order for Trade Price Cars Racing.
