With a break in the calendar, now's a good time to work on improvements. I'm the developer of BTCC Hub, a fan-made app covering standings, results, starting grids, driver profiles and more.
If you use the app (or have tried it), I'd love to hear:
Nothing is off the table, Whether it's small tweaks or bigger ideas. Drop a comment below and I'll do my best to act on the feedback before the next round.

Since BTCC has gained quite a lot of popularity over the last few years, especially this year, it’s gotten a lot of people hoping something like iRacing adds those cars to the sim (which sparks a ton of discussion/arguments, but that’s not the point). But what if BTCC could get a standalone sim, like WEC did with LMU? My question is, what developers/company would you like to make the sim? My personal pick is Studio397, mostly because of the RFactor 2 DLC.
Anyone going to this?
I was considering it but the entry list looks very thin. Not sure it’s worth the six hour round trip 🤷♂️
Firing somebody off under a yellow flag in the rain, just a shocking bit of driving and decision making from him. Seriously fortunate no one was around the beached car
So, the BTCC is back. Which also means the return of the targeted adverts on ITV4. What annoying ones have we got this year? I'll start:
That dormeo mattress thing promotion that went on for about a year. The definition of 'We have JML at home'.
Hey at least ITV got some new sponsor stings for the first time since about 2022.
Unfortunately, Apple has halted any new updates to the iOS BTCC Hub app as I don't currently have the necessary permissions to use 3rd party content.
I have contacted BTCC and am currently awaiting a reply.
Android BTCC Hub will continue to receive updates
I have quite a few more images but anyways, I underestimated how much fun attending a BTCC race would be. I never even watched BTCC before, but like attending Motorsport events around the UK (have been to BRX and BSB before at Lydden Hill and Snetterton respectively), so thought I would finally see what all this BTCC hype is all about. I enjoyed it a ton and I managed to get 8 signatures on my AR Box 992 (last picture). The atmosphere is amazing and seeing them go around Brands Hatch Indy (one of my favourite tracks in AC), was insane with seeing all the elevation changes IRL. Thanks a lot to everyone who participated and let me know how your weekend went. I also had to head back home early because I’m busy, but I’m sure I’ll be returning to a BTCC race in no time when the weather gets better.
In light of Lionel Messi (and his family) being spotted in the paddock at the Miami GP, have any celebrities been spotted in the paddock at BTCC meetings before? I seem to recall James Martin doing the reverse grid draw at Oulton Park one year, and remember seeing Sir Lewis at Brands at one point.
And for funsies, which celebrities would you want to see in the paddock?
What has the most cars and tracks?
Is this a sign of things to come........
I’m heading out to Brands Hatch this Sunday for my first ever BTCC race, and am wondering where to view the racing from. I want to dress much as possible, and I don’t mind if I have to stand the whole day if there is no space to put out a chair, I just want to see as much action as I can. Hope this post helps those attending too :)
There used to be a video on YouTube of Roland putting in an amazing defensive display in his M3 at Brands during 1988, I wish it still existed because it was proof of Roland's talent. Here was a man who fought tooth and nail across the globe to make it in motorsport, only for it to end in the most tragic and devastating way.
A nice mirror is that David Brabham, Roland's team mate at Simtek in 1994, also ended up driving a BMW in the BTCC
Hey guys, I’m new to BTCC. I randomly watched the first race of the opening round since it’s free on YouTube, and it turned out to be really good racing.
However, I don’t know much about the teams or drivers except for Ashley Sutton and Tom Ingram.
So, to follow the series more closely, I’d like to understand a few things, such as who the top teams are, who the top drivers are, which teams and drivers are considered underdogs, whether there is a Balance of Performance (BoP) system in the series, and which tracks on the calendar are the best.
