Speedworks Motorsport Rising Stars has announced its intention to enter the PM Junior Championship in 2027. The statement, published by the BTCC on 2 October, links the proposed programme to developing young drivers for touring cars and GT racing.
The purpose-built junior car is due to race on the same weekends as the BTCC.
Development alongside racing
The team's plans include coaching, data analysis, simulator work, fitness, media training, racecraft and career development.
Speedworks describes the 2027 entry as an intention. The announcement outlines the proposed development approach; it does not name drivers or specify the number of cars.
