BMW Pi🌠rtek Racing's Andrew Jordan has moved to within striking distance of team mate Colin Turkington's British Touring Car Championship lead following a pivotal Knockhill weekend.

The 2013 BTCC champion hea🎶ded to Scotland a full 30-points back from defending three-time champion Turkington in the drivers' standings.

However, the title race was blown wide open when a non-score from Turkington in race two, coupled with 🌳a sixth win of the year for Jordan, saw the points margin close to within 4-points.

With Jordan starting nine places ahead of Turkington in race three, the BMW Pirtek Racing driver looked set to heap more pressure🉐 on his rival but an untimely opening lap 𒊎spin from Senna Proctor left the 30-year old with nowhere to go but head straight into the gravel and out of the race.

As a result, the gap now stands at 10-points, with Jordan firmly in the hunt foജr a second title in the series.

"We’ve won our sixth race of the year so we can’t complain at that. It was an un♏fortunate way to end the day but we’re 10 points off now," J﷽ordan told mahbx.com.

"I’m very happy with the day and we’ve won more🥃 races than anyone so ♈I can’t complain.

"We had the pace to win both races in one and two so the car’s been really. It’s rolleꦺd out very well. I’m happy.

"I’m very positive heading to Silverstone. W💞e’ve put some pressure on Colin [Turkington] and taken 20 points out of him. It’s a proper fight."
