Leicester bolstered their bid to reach the English Premiership play-offs by routing Bristol 36-19 at Ashton Gate on Sunday.
The Tigers climbed above Bristol, Sale and Saracens into second place, with four matches left in the regular season.
Bristol failed to collect a Premiership try-scoring bonus point for the first time since December after Leicester successfully stalled their free-scoring machine.
Adam Radwan, Ollie Hassell-Collins, Jack van Poortvliet, Freddie Steward and Cameron Henderson scored Leicester's tries, with Handre Pollard kicking three conversions and a penalty and Jamie Shillcock slotting one conversion.
Bristol trailed by 17 points at the interval, and while they rallied after the break, the home side's try-count stopped at three after Gabriel Ibitoye, Kalaveti Ravouvou and Harry Randall touched down, while AJ MacGinty added two conversions.
It was an outstanding performance on the road by Leicester, one that was underpinned by an impressive display up-front, with skipper Julian Montoya, lock Ollie Chessum and flanker Tommy Reffell among those to the fore.
