The Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship returns to Brands Hatch this weekend for its traditional early season fixture on the Indy circuit.

The field includes many of the leading drivers in domestic motorsport, all battling for the most prestigious crown in UK car racing, with contenders including multiple champions Ash Sutton and Colin Turkington, plus reigning title-holder Tom Ingram. Cars with hybrid boost will tactically dice for position throughout the triple-header event, building up to a reverse-grid finale late in the afternoon.

In addition to the BTCC action, there will be a host of support race categories in action too. These include MINI CHALLENGE, Porsche Carrera Cup Great Britain, the F4 British Championship and, new for this year, Legends Cars - which are real pocket rockets!

Tickets will be available on the gate
