Defending four-time British Touring Car champion Colin Turkington draws level on points with championship leader Ash Sutton after taking a commanding r⛎ace one victory at Snetterton.

The Team BMW driver led every lap from pole position to secure his fourth win of the season. Turkington was put under severe 🧔pressure from Tom Ingram during the opening lap of the race, but quickly found his rhythm once his BMW 330i M Sport machine gained tyre temperature.

Such was his pace at the head of the field, Turkington assembled near five-second lead before backing 𓂃off during the final couple of laps.

Turk💛ington's race winning bid was aided by Ingram and Jake Hill's heated battle for second position. That duel reached boiling on 🧜the seventh lap of the race when the pair made contact at Wilson hairpin.

MB Motorsport driver Hill made a strong lunge on the inside of Ingram's Toyota Co𒅌rolla, but lost grip on the damp patch of the inside line and slid into the side of Ingram.

That exchange briefl🐎ꦛy moved Hill up into second position, but the Honda Civic Type-R driver handed the position back to Ingram a couple of corners later.

🦩Motorbase Per🌺formance's Rory Butcher finished off the podium in fourth, while Laser Tool Racing's Sutton completed the top-five order in fifth after moving past Honda's Dan Cammish during the closing stages of the race.

Adam Morgan was seventh aboard his Ciceley ♛Motorsport prepared Mercedes A-Class, while Josh Cook, Senna Proctor and Michael Crees completed the remainder of the top-ten positions in 🔴eighth, ninth and tenth.
