Reigning British Touring Car champion Jake Hill has cautioned that his BMW still lacks pace, despite leading a team 1-2 in qualifying at Brands Hatch. The West Surrey Racing team and its 330i M Sports had a disappointing showing at Donington Park due to changes following the removal of the hybrid, affecting ballast distribution negatively. Hill and his team are pleased with the improvements in the past two weeks but feel there is more room for progress. Despite securing pole position, Hill acknowledged that they are only halfway to their potential and must continue to seek more speed. The new track surface at Brands Hatch has helped to balance the disadvantage of rear-wheel drive, providing better traction out of Clearways.
