A capacity entry of thirty six cars have entered for the first round of the 2019 Dunlop Britcar Endurance Championship, running this weekend on the Silverstone International circuit.
There is plenty of potential action in stall with a revised race format this year, replacing the past where all cars would start together and those entered into the sprint car class would leave the track at the timed conclusion of their race, while those in the endurance class would continue. Now, having listened to the wishes of entrants, each championship round will be a pair of 1 hour races, in most cases held on the same day as qualifying as well, meaning a packed day of racing for all involved to keep the cars on track.
Featuring a mixture headlined by GT3, GT4 and TCR cars, the 5 class system is well supported in all cases, meaning predictions for winners is almost impossible at this point, and has all the makings of being Britcar Endurance’s best ever season.
