Gordon Shedden has been declared the winner of the second British Touring Car Championship race at Donington Park after Tom Ingram is given a one-second post-race penalty.

The Excelr8 Motorsport driver finished first on the road during the second race after producing a sensational charge from 11th on the grid.

Ingram caught and passed pole-sitter Shedden on lap 10 of the race but was adjudged to have 'gained an unfair advantage' when passing the three-time champion at Coppice corner.

Consequently, Ingram's one-second penalty has reversed the positions between the two drivers, meaning Shedden picks up a milestone 50th career BTCC win.

The pair will still start race three from 11th and 12th, with Team BMW's Colin Turkington starting on pole position.
