Jake Hill is back on track this weekend and he is targeting more podium finishes as the Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship season heads to Silverstone.

The team and driver, Hill, head to Silverstone with their WSR-run BMW 330i M Sport to tackle the 1.6-mile National configuration. Renowned for its simplistic layout, with three straights and three corners, the venue offers plenty of overtaking opportunities and racing action around each lap.

Silverstone has been a happy hunting ground for Jake and the team, with it being the scene of some superb performances, with the past four visits to the circuit seeing Jake claim 4 race wins, 5 podiums and a lap record to boot.

This weekend, Jake will be piloting his BMW 330i M Sport, with the team once again carefully managing his TOCA Turbo Boost (TTB) deployment. With Jake remaining fifth in the drivers’ standings following Donington, he will have 9 seconds of TTB available per lap in qualifying—deployable only above 130 kph—and will now be permitted 9 laps of boost usage in the opening 22-lap race on Sunday morning.

Speaking ahead of the weekend, Hill said: “After narrowly missing out on the podium places at Donington, where we showed some great pace all weekend, we head to Silverstone looking to go that next step further and challenge for those results we know we can achieve with the pace we have worked so hard to find.

“Silverstone is always a highlight of the calendar, and we have had some fantastic results here as a team spanning all the way back to 2021! We will be giving it everything this weekend to be battling at the front, and I cannot wait to hit the track.”
