Ronan Pearson has been disqualified from Donington Park race two. The BRISTOL STREET MOTORS with EXCELR8 Hyundai driver was on the podium in third before the decision was made.
The ruling on the final order was due to the car not meeting the ride height requirements as the car met scrutineering. Meaning that the car was not fit to be a part of the session and therefore excluded from the race.
The original finishing position would have meant that Pearson was a BTCC podium holder in only his second race in the series. He was one of the chancers that made the decision to go onto wet tyres early who followed race winner and teammate Tom Chilton and Adam Morgan in the Team BMW car through the pack.
