The news season starts this weekend, with a race round Donington Park. All the runners and riders can be found here - Home • BTCC and it will be "free to air" on ITV4.

If you can find your way to see a race live, you will enjoy yourself.

Smallest grid for a while.

Always an enjoyable day of racing though.

i shall be at Donington park on Sunday. looking forward to it. haven't been there for 5 years. & nice to have some racing back after Japanese GP.

it seems like its very new era for BTCC. lighter cars & no hybrid

Just got into the BTCC. just watching a bit of the F4, i wonder which 1 of these will be in F2 in 5 years. like thai driver

My View

ash sutton is great, he was very hard done to

im saying it of my own free will & not because his team are in the next box

What a day for Ash Sutton. i bet never in his wildest dreams, after ending up in the gravel on Saturday afternoon with his biggest rival starting 2nd in race 1 while he was 21st, could he have imagined finishing 2nd, 1st, & 1st. I’d guess it’s the closest anyone has come to winning three races in a day since Dan Eaves? in 2008, & leaves Donington with an 18-point lead & 34 ahead of Ingram.

Couldn't watch any of the racing due to other things on today so got home this evening and had a look on ITVX to see if there were any highlights on line.

Clicked on the BTCC link where it even said "New Series" and the most recent highlights are from 2024.



Why the feck do ITV bother when they hide sport that the are obviously paying a premium for, on ITV4 then don't bother doing a highlights program or putting the races online?

A waste of time for everyone.

This is why sport keeps ending up on PPV channels.

my only guess is that with 3 red flags & many safety cars over the days thingto upls did overrun. so the program didnt finish til 6.30-6.45. they havent had time to upload it yet

but sky sports are shocking with indycar, i missed arlington live on the sunday, 1st full race rerun wasnt until wednesday 72 hrs later
