Qualifying
Jacob qualified fourth.
Race 1
A shower just before the start gave the field the option to switch to wets. Judging that the strong wind would dry the track quickly, Jacob and the team stayed on slicks – the only Pro to do so. He dropped from fourth to 14th on cold tyres on the opening lap, but once the slicks came in he scythed through the field, winning the Pro class more than 20 seconds clear of his nearest championship rival and finishing second overall.
Race 2
Jacob climbed from fourth to second on the opening lap, but an accident on lap three brought out the red flag and the result was declared, leaving him second.
Race 3
Jacob out-launched the pole-sitter but wasn't far enough alongside into Turn 1 to make a fair challenge. He attacked all race, including after a safety car restart, and crossed the line second for a third podium of the weekend.
“With the championship to consider, staying on slicks was a big risk, but the team and I were confident it was the right strategy – and it paid off. I felt we had the pace to win both Sunday races. Race two was cut short by an accident, and most importantly I hope everyone involved is recovering quickly. In the final race it wasn't worth a big risk for the win, so I held second.
“It's been a great weekend, with a big haul of points putting us right back in the fight. Thank you to Duckhams, Yuasa, EDGE, Verve Display, First Fix Installations and all of our partners.”
Jacob leaves Silverstone second in the Pro standings on 99 points, nine behind the leader, with everything to play for at Brands Hatch.
