WestCoast Racing’s Dan Lloyd continued to set the pace in the TCR UK series at Croft, going fastest in a rain-soaked free practice session by almost two seconds from title rival Ollie Taylor.

Dan Lloyd continued to set the pace in morning warm-up for the TCR UK series at Croft, with WestCoast Racing’s Andreas Bäckman closing the gap to the points leader in second to just over two tenths.
