Halfords Yuasa Racing pair Matt Neal and Dan Cammish battled hard on track to secure vital championship points on a challenging weekend of racing in the Dunlop MSA British Touring Car Championship at Rockingham.

Both drivers showed strong pace on track at the wheel of their Honda Civic Type R race cars, but found themselves unable to push for a place on the podium due to the forceful nature of racing in the midfield.

Delayed by an incident at the start, Neal fought hard in race one to finish 18^th, and showed top-six pace in both races two and three, although plenty of contact in the midfield meant he had to settle for 14^th and 15^th-place finishes.

Series rookie Cammish came close to securing a maiden pole position in qualifying for race one, where he picked up a fifth-place finish despite carrying damage as a legacy of contact on the opening lap.

Rain ahead of the second race created challenging conditions on track, with Cammish being one of those drivers caught out by a damp patch on the circuit, an incident that left him in the 21^st spot. However, the Yorkshireman fought back well in race three despite being on the less favourable hard tyre to end his weekend with a second top-10 finish.

The points scored in the final race allowed the Honda teams' to top score amongst the manufacturer entries to maintain second in the Manufacturers' Championship whilst Halfords Yuasa Racing ends the weekend just two points away from the lead of the Teams Championship.
