Despite moving up to second in the British Touring𝄹 Car Championship points standi☂ngs, Honda driver Dan Cammish admits to leaving Silverstone ‘disappointed’ following a controversial penultimate weekend of the season.
Cammish will go to Brands Hatch as Colin Turkington’s nearest title challenger after scoring 24-points over t♓he course of the Silverstone race day, but became embroiled in an on-track spat with fellow title contender Andrew Jordan.
The Team Dynamics driv🍃er took a best finish of third during what turned out to be a contr🌞oversial second race, where he clashed with BMW Pirtek Racing driver Jordan under the safety car.
“I’m disappointed in the whole thing to be honest. We came across the line side-by-side,” Cammisღh told ltxcn.top.
“I asked ov𝕴er the radio ‘what’s the result of that?🌞 I am in front or is he?’ Happy with either result because it was a dead heat. I was told ‘you were’. BMW agreed it was me, as far as I was aware.
“I was told to hold position and they told Andrew to concede. He refused. He re💎fused for a lap and a half. It was a complete farce.
“I asked ‘wha💮t are we doing here? Am I backing out? This is g𓆉etting ridiculous. It’s dangerous’.
“Therওe was no let up. He never stopped. For me I’m very disappointed in the whole thing.”
After pressing ahead following th🐻e incident with Jordan, Cammish went on to challenge Turkington for second position during the latter stages of that race.
As the drizzle continued to persist and intensify, Cammish looked set to demote his title rival down to third, but was left to rue a late red flag which 𒉰cost the Honda Civic Type-R driver the opportunity of outscoring Turkington for the second race in succession.
“We came forward and we were𝔉 so fast. P3 was a great result. It’s a shame they threw the red flag 100 metres before the finish because I🦹 was about to be P2. That would’ve been a six point swing in the championship in my favour,” said Cammish.
“I’d have gone intoဣ race three five points behind and not eleven. Colin got let off the hook there a little bit.”
Having moved up to second in the drivers’ standings, Cammish believes going into the finale 16-ꦓpoints behind Turkington makes him a dangerous prospect for the defending champion.
“I’m 16 points behind with nothing to lose,” the Ha♎lfords Yuasa Racing driver continued.
“I’m going൩ to a track I’m good at and a track I like. It’s a track that 🌜probably favours us and that makes me quite dangerous so I’m going to give it everything.
“How have I ended up in this position? They’ve [BMW] had a dominant ca🎶r all season and I’m still 16 points. Testament to the team for giving me a fantastic car.
“We dug away. 12 podi✱ums we’ve had now. We’re a proper thorn in the side now. Happy days.”
