The British Touring Car Championship’s official season launch took place at Brands Hatch on Tuesday and Wednesday, with teams showing off their new liveries before hitting the track for testing.
TouringCars.Net brings you a selection of on-track photos from the day at Brands Hatch, which took place in sunny and dry conditions.
21 drivers took to the circuit, with only WSR (one entry) and One Motorsport (two entries) being TOCA BTCC Licence (TBL) holders who did not fulfil their complete entries (WSR have entered two cars into the 2026 BTCC but hold three TBLs).
