Robb Gravett secured the overall title with this result.
Nettan Lindgren won class B. Has any female driver repeated this feat in the variety of privateer cups or +production specification cars that has been part of the BTCC since 1990?
German Markus Oestreich imported from the DTM to drive the second Vauxhall Cavalier. By this point his usual mount was an Irmscher prepared Opel Omega 3.0 24V
Chuck Nicholson returning to the BTCC. His latest previous race was at Oulton Park in early 1987 driving a Chris Hodgetts Corolla.
