ROKiT MB Motorsport BMW's Jake Hill romped to a convincing British Touring Car Championship pole position after comfortably setting the fastest time🌼 in qualifying at Knockhill.

The BMW 330e M Sport driver loo♉ked the driver to beat from the very word go of the 30-minute qualifying shootout after an early 5🐓0.8s effort left him poised to clinch pole.

Having become the first driver to break the 51-second 𓄧barrier this weekend, Hill gradually chipped away at his initial benchmark, before settling fo𓂃r an eventual 50.726s lap around the infamous Scottish venue.

A brief red-flag towards the end of the session reset t✨he clock to five-minutes, which gave the rest of the field one last chance to derail Hill's afternoon, but t📖he BMW driver's lap proved too hard to beat.

De꧙fending three-time champion Ash Sutton came closest to spoiling Hill's party in second position. At one point, Sutton drew to within 0.076s of Hill's pole-position time.

However, as Hill extended his advantage, Sutton, who suffered a brief off in the dying moments of the session, was unable to match the BMW's ra🎀te of progression.

Nevertheless, during a session which was dominated by RWD machinery, Sutꦕton puts his NAPA Racing UK Ford Focus on the front-row, amidst a near top-six BMW lockout.

Team BMW's Colin Turkington typically produced a lap when it counted the most to snatch a spot on the inside of the second-row in third ahead of ไCar Gods Racing's Adam Morgan in fourtꦬh.

Stephen Jelley very briefly moved ahead of his four-time champion team mate Turkington during the final minutes of the session, but fell back downꩲ to fi𝔉fth ahead of George Gamble in sixth.

As virtue of a dominant display from the BMW contingent, Toyota Gazoo Racing UK's Rory Butcher was next best placed FWD runner in seventh position, 🌌ahead of championship leader Tom Ingram in eighth.

Local hero Aiden Moffa🧸t and NAPA Racing UK's Dan Cammish completed the remainder of the top-ten in ninth a✤nd tenth.
