Doble claims maiden BTCC pole to NAPA Racing clean-sweep

After setting the fifth quickest time in Q1, the BTCC rookie became the first driver to break NAPA Racing UK’s qualifying dominance by producing an impressive lap in the Q2 top-ten shootout. Doble initially took the top spot on the timesheets with a lap time of 57.635s early on in the session, but he managed to go even faster with a lap time of 57.599s. This proved crucial as four-time champion Turkington came very close to spoiling Doble’s success with a lap time of 57.611s, securing second place on the grid. Defending champion Tom Ingram will start in third, just 0.030s behind Doble’s best lap time. Laser Tool Racing BMW’s Jake Hill and runaway championship leader Ash Sutton round out the top five, with Sutton in fifth. Dan Cammish and Aron Taylor-Smith make up the fourth row of the grid, followed by Rory Butcher and Sam Osborne in ninth and tenth positions respectively.
