Silverline Chevrolet driver Jason Plato has won the British Touring Car Drivers’ Championship, making it the perfect end to the Cruze’s first ever season in the series.
The remarkable achievement came with a textbook display of driving at Brands Hatch in the last meeting of the season, which started with a lap record and a pole position on Saturday, and ended with two superbly clean victories on Sunday 10th October.
Having put the Cruze on pole position in style, Plato went on to show a clean pair of heels to his rivals after one of the series’ closest-fought title battles, which could have seen any one of four drivers take the title.
“It’s the perfect end to an amazing season”, said Jason. “It took us a while to get going but by the end of the season we had a car that was unbeatable, thanks in no small part to the hard work and dedication of my team. We knew we could do it, and we did!”
Well done to Jason and the Silverline team for putting in an amazing performance to take the title.
