About This Event
Britain's fastest circuit since 1968 — a 3.8km clockwise lap on the perimeter of a former RAF airfield, where BTCC drivers reach 190mph on the flat-out sweeps between Church and Noble corners. Four races across the weekend: Saturday's Race to Pole qualifying race sets the grid for Sunday's three full championship rounds, with hard-compound tyres mandatory due to the circuit's abrasive surface and high cornering speeds.
