What is racing this weekend?

At the home of the BARC – Thruxton, prepare for the ground to shake as the heavy-hitting British Truck Racing Championship will lock horns for five bouts over the weekend. Off the track there will be lots to do thanks to Convoy Thruxton, while the ultimate test of national endance – the Britcar Endurance Championship will feature two races on a packed Saturday schedule. They will also be joined by the MINI Challenge Clubsport and guest series invites from Monoposto Racing Club, 750MC and BMW Car Club across the weekend.

Oulton Park will host racing on Saturday for power in the park.TCR UK headline the billing with a whole host of tin-topping support races including the Miltek Civic Cup, Junior Saloon Car Championship, Track Action, CNC Heads Sports and Saloons and coming from Scotland the Scottish MINI Cooper Cup.

We run to Yorkshire for the last round of the first half of the season in the British Hillclimb Championship as Harewood hosts two rounds of the exciting run off drama for the top single seaters and supporting classes.

It’s a proud parent moment as British F4 joins the supporting cast for the F1 British Grand Prix with Practice on Friday, Qualifying and Race 1 on Saturday and final race on Sunday morning in the building up to the Grand Prix.
