Victory came as a surprise for Andrew Jordan

Andrew Jordan won the final British Touring Car Championship race of 2010, a victory that came as a surprise for the Vauxhall-driver.
“I’m so surprised that we have come away from the final race with another win. We have been struggling with the car this weekend and going into the last race I wasn’t confident we had the pace to keep Kane behind us – but we were still aiming for a podium,” said Jordan.

Jordan came under hard pressure from Steven Kane towards the end of the race, but was able to keep ahead despite of fading front tyres.

“We had been scratching our heads earlier in the day working out which way to head on set up – we made some unusual changes because Brands Hatch is a unique circuit – the short and twisty nature hurts our tyres more because we carry the extra weight of the Turbo engine over the front wheels. In contrast, the BMW’s look after their tyres, so I’m just thrilled we could keep them behind and win the race,” said Jordan.

Next year Jordan is aiming to be back and fight for the independents championship.

“Fingers crossed we’ll be back in 2011 to mount a challenge on the Independent Championship and fight for more wins,” said Jordan.
