Round Two Preview

After a cracking season opener at Donington Park in April, Trackday Championship (TDC) is now set to return on May 18 for the second round of 2024. The historic Brands Hatch Grand Prix awaits, offering competitors of the championship a rare opportunity to race on the sought-after extended circuit configuration.

Drivers will start the lap at Brands Hatch with the iconic challenge of Paddock Hill Bend and Druids Hairpin, before a quick change of direction at Graham Hill Bend. Then comes the climb through the off-cambered, left-hander of Surtees as drivers make their way on to the Grand Prix loop. The combination of fast straights, drops and corners will thrill competitors as they rush through Kent woodland in search of the podium places and important championship points.

Brands Hatch Grand Prix is a must on the bucket list of any racer and is definitely not an opportunity to be missed.

TDC competitors will be hoping to emulate the success of John LaMaster, Stewart Donovan and Miller/Langridge, who triumphed at last season’s Brands Hatch GP round in Class B, C and D respectively. To step upon the podium will be no easy feat and both driver and car will have to be up to the challenge.

Last time out, 2022 TDC Champion John Lyne (Tylah Motorsport) got his season started in the best fashion possible, beating a packed grid to claim both overall and class victory at Donington Park. As a result, it’s the #71 driver who leads the standings heading into the upcoming Brands Hatch round. Team Air Supply’s father and son duo of George and Jack Wright follow closely in second, while an exceptional opening round and class victory for Fiesta Clubracer’s Henry Wright and Kevin Glover sees the #38 duo head the Class D standings – and third overall! PRO-AM Racing are the early pacesetters in Class C, courtesy of drivers Scott Thompson and Ben Johansson. However, with only one race down this season and six to go, there’s still plenty to play for!

TDC has become synonyms with well-contested racing in the years since inception and it was tremendous to see this the case once again at the 2024 season opener. Competitive battling could be found throughout each of the three classes, on each and every lap. You can be sure to expect more of the same not just at Brands Hatch, but for the duration of the season.

The stage is set.
