Champions weren’t just crowned in the Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship at Brands Hatch this past weekend (October 4/5) as titles were also decided across the four support championships that make up the TOCA support bill.

On what was an action-packed finale around the famous Grand Prix circuit, the capacity crowd in attendance were treated to a feast of wheel-to-wheel thrills as the battle for supremacy across each of the one-make categories reached an exciting climax.

Hitech TGR’s Fionn McLaughlin capped off a scintillating season to be crowned champion at the first time of asking and in-doing so, bagged himself an invaluable 12 FIA Super Licence Points – which he will take with him into FIA Formula 3 next year.

The Red Bull Junior driver entered the final meeting of the season with a commanding 61.5-point lead, and a podium in a captivating curtain-raiser at the Kent venue was enough for him to clinch the highly-coveted crown.

In what has been a ground-breaking campaign, McLaughlin’s path to title glory has been nothing short of sublime, with the Irishman tallying a total of two pole positions, five race wins, an additional eight podiums and seven fastest laps on his way to championship superstardom.

Jimmy Piszcyk helped guide Rodin Motorsport to a second successive Teams’ Cup as he won twice around the 2.43-mile circuit whilst Chris Dittmann Racing’s Tommy Harfield also ended the year on the top step of the podium.

Over in the Porsche Carrera Cup Great Britain, just two points separated the top two in the standings however it was Rosland Gold by Century Motorsport’s Andrew Rackstraw that emerged victorious to secure title honours.

The South African driver entered the weekend holding a small advantage in the points over Will Martin and knowing that he just needed to shadow his chief title rival at best to ensure he walked away with the main prize.

Eden Motorsport’s Martin certainly pushed Rackstraw all the way by tallying a brace of podiums although two top-fives proved to be enough for the latter to follow in the footsteps of his team-mate George Gamble and end the year as champion.

Things were just as close in the Porsche Sprint Challenge Great Britain too with Tom Bradshaw holding off a late charge from Joe Marshall to become champion.

Marshall proved to be irresistible around the flowing Grand Prix layout, winning all three races, however that sadly wasn’t to be enough as Bradshaw tallied just enough points to bring home the coveted crown.

Rounding out the list of champions was EXCELR8 Motorsport’s Tom Ovenden, who clinched the Vertu MINI CHALLENGE JCW title.

Arriving at Brands Hatch with one hand on the title, Ovenden – who is a previous winner of the MINI CHALLENGE Trophy – held his nerve on a weekend that saw Le Mans 24-Hour winner Nick Tandy win twice to claim the biggest prize on offer.
