A minimum nine races – including three races from the bill-topping BTCC – are guaranteed on Sundays at each of the season’s ten events. Notably, rounds three, four and five at Thruxton, Oulton Park and Croft include a BTCC drivers' parade around the circuit in front of the race day crowds.

This year's championship will feature at nine different venues in eight different counties spanning the length and breadth of the UK and will come to a head on Silverstone's short, high-speed, thrill-a-minute National circuit in mid-October.
