Charles Dawson and Kiern Jewiss converted pole position into a second British GT victory of the season in Race 1 at Snetterton where Optimum’s Marc Warren and Jack Brown took another significant step towards winning this year’s GT4 crown.

The GT3 championship leaders made the most of Blackthorn’s compensation time to win comfortably by eight seconds from 2 Seas team-mates Kevin Tse and Maximilian Götz who beat Barwell’s Alex Martin and Sandy Mitchell to second overall.

Further back, Brown scored his fourth victory at Snetterton in as many years by leading home Mahiki’s Ginetta shared by Josh Miller and Jack Mitchell who beat Luca Hopkinson and Harry George to Silver spoils by just half a second.

Optimum’s Pro-Am duo received a further boost to their overall title ambitions when main rivals Ravi Ramyead and Charlie Robertson (Century) lost second place to a drive-through penalty for track limits infringements.
