The 13th and 14th rounds of the FIA WTCC will take place next week at the Brands Hatch Grand Prix Circuit, located some 30 km South East of London. It is the third consecutive year the championship visits the racetrack.
Being a regular venue of the British Touring Car Championship, Brands Hatch is very well known by a number of WTCC competitors, starting with the local boys: James Thompson, Robert Huff and Andy Priaulx. Thompson has won here four times; Huff also tasted victory at Brands Hatch during his first year of the BTCC in 2004. Reigning world champion, Priaulx finally grabbed his first touring car win at the Kent circuit last year in the WTCC''s Race 2.
