Memories (since Super Touring era - 1991)/

2009: Stephen Jelley takes his first two BTCC race wins in his Team RAC BMW.
2008: In near-monsoon conditions, Matt Neal comes through from 11th on the grid to take his first win in Vauxhall’s Vectra.
2007:: The BTCC returns to Rockingham after a four-year absence, running on the shorter Int'l Super Sports Car lay-out. Fabrizio Giovanardi gives Vauxhall's Vectra its first two wins.
2003:: The BTCC makes its first appearance at Rockingham, on its 2.44-mile International lay-out. Honda’s Civics dominate, with Alan Morrison pipping Matt Neal to pole position. But it is Neal who wins race 1 as they finish some 20 seconds clear of the field. Both, though, retire from race 2, leaving Vauxhall’s Yvan Muller to just hold off MG team-mates Anthony Reid and Warren Hughes. Spectators are moved to the bottom of Turn 1’s tall grandstand as a lightning storm nears!
