The Trackday Championship heads to Brands Hatch on Saturday 14 November for the final round of the season, where the 2026 Champion will be crowned!
Michael Rawlings in the #34 Paddock Performance Racing BMW 3 series maintains the championship advantage, with 170 points heading into this showdown, but the championship isn’t settled yet! Matt Swaffer in the #45 Swaffer Racing BMW 130i, a previous race winner at the Kent circuit, sits just 13 points behind Rawlings and will fancy his chances at the championship decider.
Ashley Parsons, 2026 Class C champion-elect, also remains in contention for the overall championship with an impressive 148-point total after a strong season behind the wheel of his #83 Se7en motorsport Toyota Celica.
Amongst the 2026 championship contenders set to take to the circuit at Brands Hatch, is a strong entry packed with class winners and past champions! 2024 Class C champion Wayne Cockerill has landed on the class-podium here for the last two years, and will no doubt be looking to end his season in the same fashion. But, double-winners in the Trackday Trophy October double header, the #245 Harts Racing team, have proven to be hard to beat!
Jack Hargraves in the #66 Boreham Motorsport MX-5 leads Class D heading into the final round and will be looking to cement his claim on the class championship at Brands Hatch in his first full year in the TDC!
Lee Taylor in the #95 Graves Motorsport MX-5 currently sits third in the Class D championship but a strong result could see a late climb up the TDC table to snatch second in class from Steven Orant in the #56 STAL Powered for Racing MX-5 MK4 who sits only 10 points ahead. Daniel Kennard also returns to Class D in the #285 Luna Rose Racing Toyota MR2, this time out sharing the drive with Tom Algar in Class D.
Theres a lot on the line as the TDC heads to Brands Hatch this November, as part of the last race meeting of the circuits centenary celebrations.
