The Renault UK Clio Cup Junior calendar has been announced. The championship for teenage drivers will begin next June at Thruxton and run until October.
For its inaugural season, the junior championship will run twelve races over six weekends from June to October. The series will mostly support truck racing championships.
“I’m really pleased with the UK Clio Cup Junior championship’s first calendar and our thanks go to the British Automobile Racing Club for helping to arrange this,” said Renault Sport UK’s Motorsport Championship Manager Will Fewekes.
“The mixture of circuites will really test the teams and drivers. Notably the first five are on the senior UK Clio Cup’s calendar with the BTCC and that will be of appeal to our young drivers. Pembrey meanwhile adds an interesting challenge – and possible twist – right at the end of the season.”
Six teams have already confirmed their involvement in the series, but Fewekes expects more to join the championship in the coming weeks.
