Saloon car racer Russell Humphrey won the latest round of the Super Coupe Cup at Snetterton to increase his lead in the championship.

Humphrey, of Didcot, qualified 11th after the wrong tyre choice made the car hard to drive on a track that was slow to dry out.

The first race got off to a bad start when a Rover Tomcat clashed into him, sending the Rover spinning and slowing his progress.

Once the race settled down he made rapid progress through the field catching the leader with one lap and taking a win for the Total Suisse Tooling Ltd Vauxhall Vectra.

In the second race, a bad start dropped him to third on the first lap, and after a great scrap, he was demoted to fourth as his rear tyres overheated on the drying track.

He then spun on approach to the Russell Chicane before rejoining settling for fifth overall and the fourth Vectra home.

Jack Newland, of Witney, boss of Bicester-based Arrowstar Racing, was seventh.
