Qualifying
With a balance issue from recent rounds identified and fixed by the team after Croft, Jacob was immediately on the pace – third and fourth overall in practice and quickest in Pro-Am. He ran second overall for most of qualifying until traffic stopped him improving, but still took Pro-Am pole and fifth overall for Race 1.
Race 1
From the third row, Jacob was well placed for a strong result, but a car behind locked up and made contact at Becketts on the opening lap, pushing him into another competitor. The damage was too great to continue.
Race 2
Graves Motorsport did an amazing job to get the car back out, but it wasn't quite right. From tenth overall and fourth in class, Jacob fought back through a tightly packed group to where he started, finishing just 0.2 seconds behind his Pro-Am rival ahead, and still set the second-fastest Pro-Am lap.
“We found an issue with the car after Croft that had really restricted our pace, and straight away at Silverstone we were third and fourth in practice and second for most of qualifying. I have to thank Graves Motorsport for their hard work between rounds.
“It was nice to be back at the front, but the races didn't go our way. The team did an amazing job repairing the car for race two, but the damage got worse as the race went on. It was another weekend of what could have been, but the pace is back where it needs to be.”
Jacob stays third in the Pro-Am standings on 89 points heading into the finale.
