TCR UK Championship

The TCR UK Touring Car Championship is a premier touring car racing series based in the United Kingdom, running as part of the global TCR concept established by WSC Group. The championship was launched in 2018 as a cost-effective alternative to the British Touring Car Championship, featuring production-based touring cars with 2.0-liter turbocharged engines and front-wheel drive configuration. The series typically runs across multiple weekends throughout the racing season, with each event featuring practice sessions, qualifying, and two races. Points are awarded using the standard TCR scoring system, with 25 points for a race win down to 1 point for 15th place. The championship has attracted both established touring car drivers and emerging talent, with manufacturers like Honda, Hyundai, SEAT, and Volkswagen represented on the grid. TCR UK has established itself as an important stepping stone in British motorsport, offering competitive racing at a more accessible cost point than other major touring car series. The championship is governed by MotorSport Vision Racing and follows TCR technical regulations, ensuring close competition and exciting wheel-to-wheel racing for both drivers and spectators.
