For sale: Winner of the opening round of the 1993 British Touring Car Championship at Silverstone 🏆
Winner of the opening round of the 1993 British Touring Car Championship at Silverstone, in the hands of touring car legend Steve SoperRaced by the five-time Le Mans winner Emanuele Pirro in the 1993 Macau Touring Car RaceFresh from a sympathetic overhaul by BBM Sport in 2021 after being carefully stored since 1994The phrase ‘race of Sunday, sell on Monday’ might have been coined in the endurance racing world, but nowhere has it rung truer than in touring cars.
In 1992, the BMW of Great Britain satellite team had represented the Munich marque in the BTCC. But as BMW itself withdrew from the DTM in Germany at the end of 1992, it instead sanctioned a full Works assault at the British series for 1993, operated by its trusted outfit Schnitzer Motorsport. As Schnitzer was otherwise engaged campaigning the older E30 M3s for the Works at the end of 1992, the construction of this car was instead entrusted to Valier Motorsport.
After two further test days at Silverstone and Snetterton, this BMW’s maiden competitive outing came at the opening round of the BTCC at Silverstone on 27–28 March. E36A-033 was adorned with the race number six and assigned to Steve Soper. In their first weekend representing the Works on British soil in a British championship, Schnitzer Motorsport was the class of the field.
For the remainder of the 1993 season, this BMW 318i served as a spare car for the BMW Motorsport Team and did not race. Suffice to say, BMW dominated the BTCC, clinching the Manufacturers’ Championship by over 50 points. The Driver’s title, meanwhile, was secured by Winkelhock. At the TOCA awards dinner on 25 September, E36A-033 was proudly displayed at the venue with the newly crowned champion’s name on the rear side windows.
