Qualifying
After strong pace in Thursday's dry practice, rain arrived for qualifying – but Jacob was just as quick in the wet, qualifying fourth overall for Race 1 and third overall for Race 2, comfortably on class pole for both.
Race 1
A Pro car got between Jacob and eventual winner Ed Stanton on the opening lap. He applied pressure all race but, without a low-risk chance to pass, settled for second and a good haul of points.
Race 2
Starting third overall, Jacob was more aggressive around the Pro cars at the start and kept the class lead. He spent the race battling with the Pros and went on to win comfortably, adding the fastest lap and an extra point.
Race 3
From class pole and fifth overall, Jacob kept the lead and saw off Matt Kyle-Henney, who was on newer tyres. Shortly after a safety car restart, a low tyre pressure warning appeared – debris had caused a puncture. Still leading, he had to pit, dropping a lap down, but kept going to collect two potentially valuable championship points.
“Race three was hard to take. By the time I got the puncture I knew I had overcome Matt's tyre advantage and had the race under control.
“Aside from the puncture, it's been a great weekend, probably our best yet. I surprised myself in qualifying – I think I need to have more confidence in myself when it rains! Our pace in all three races was very good and much closer to where I want to be. It's only made me more determined to keep pushing.”
Jacob still leads the Am class championship with two rounds to go.
