The British Touring Car Championship (BTCC), a beacon of innovation in national motorsport, is set to introduce a series of significant changes for its 68th season in 2025. These changes, ratified during the annual meeting between the series organizer TOCA and all competing teams, are designed to enhance competitiveness, reduce costs, and underscore BTCC's commitment to environmental sustainability.
Introduction of 100% Sustainable Fuel
The 2025 season marks a pivotal shift as BTCC becomes the first UK championship to implement 100% fossil-free sustainable fuel across all competing cars. This move not only reinforces BTCC’s leadership in motorsport innovation but also aligns with broader industry standards towards sustainability.
The successful completion of the fuel’s test and development program led to its full-scale adoption, coinciding with the conclusion of the hybrid program. Cars will retain the same power-boost output and boost deployment format as in 2024, but will be lighter by 55 kilograms, enhancing their agility.
