Bahrain Touring Car Challenge

Overview

Building on the success of the 2000cc Challenge, which has been a cornerstone of local racing in Bahrain for 16 seasons, the new championship will allow more flexibility on cars that are permitted to enter, thereby making it easier for new participants to join the grid and will also help reduce costs for drivers wishing to participate.

BIC and CRC are inviting all interested parties to submit expressions of interest, by filling in a simple online form below. Once registered, drivers will be invited to a series of open days, workshops and seminars, which are all designed to help those who are new to competition racing, as well as experienced racers, to understand the new rules for the series, support with sourcing and development of cars, as well as providing insights into securing sponsorship and other financial support.

Open days will also offer the opportunity for drivers to test out the types of cars that can be used in the new championship at BIC’s track over the coming weeks. At these events, drivers will also have the chance to speak to local experts who will provide support across all areas relevant to those taking their first steps into racing.
