WSR's Charles Rainford took victory in Round 7 of the 2026 Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship at Snetterton, claiming his second career victory, as the Surrey-based squad saw two cars reach the rostrum.

Team VERTU's Tom Ingram took a lonely second, having got the better of Speedworks Corolla Racing's Josh Cook on the opening lap.

Cook couldn't hang on to second for the duration of the race as the hard charging second WSR BMW of Daryl De Leon fired his #2 machine onto the final step of the podium.

The young gun made his way up to fifth early on before getting stuck behind NAPA Racing UK's Dan Cammish for much of the contest, with the intense heat pushing the engines to the limit while following another car.

De Leon eventually made an impressive move and, in free air, immediately pulled away from the #27 Ford Focus Titanium and onto the back of Cook's #66 Toyota Corolla.

The Anglo-Filipino wasted little time in relinquishing Cook of third place as the Cambridge resident grabbed silverware at his home event.

Cook and Cammish claimed fourth and fifth respectively, whilst Dan Rowbottom rounded out the top six in his Cataclean Plato Racing Mercedes.

It was a Team VERTU double in seventh and eighth with Tom Chilton heading teammate Ricky Collard – the latter having improved from 12th on the grid.

James Dorlin (Restart Racing) and Ash Sutton (NAPA Racing UK) completed with the top positions, with the championship leader coming from the back of the grid on the Goodyear medium tyre compound.
