2020 Britcar Trophy Championship

Last updated November 17, 2023

The 2020 Dunlop Trophy Championship was a motor racing championship for production cars held across England. The Trophy championship was created specifically for production vehicles as a Britcar championship separate from the much faster GT and Touring Cars of the Endurance Championship. It is the 19th season of a Britcar championship and the 1st Britcar Trophy Championship season.

2020 was the inaugural season of the Britcar Trophy Championship. The season began on 11 July at Croft Circuit and ended on 1 November at Snetterton Circuit. All rounds took place on the same weekend as the Britcar Endurance Championship rounds. There was also a non-championship round at the Spa-Francorchamps in support of the 2019-20 FIA World Endurance Championship, where the Trophy category competitors participated in two races with the Endurance Category cars.^[1]

The championship included Class 5, 6 and 7 cars. The Michelin Clio Cup Series also joined the Britcar Trophy Championship grid for the inaugural season with the Clio cars having a separate class but still eligible to compete for the overall championship title.^[2]

2020 Class Champions and Overall Trophy Championship Places

Oliver Smith won the Class 6 championship and overall Trophy title with 191 points, Johnathan Barrett won the Class 7 championship and was second overall with 188 points and Charlie Campbell and Rob Smith won the Class 5 championship and were third overall with 177.5 points. The Clio class champions were Aaron and Steve Thompson with 137.5 points.

Calendar

The planned opening round at Donington Park, to be held on 10 April 2020, was eventually cancelled due to the pandemic. The non-championship round at Spa-Francorchamps was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic.^[3]^[4]^[5] and moved to 15 August.^[6] The revised championship was contested over 9 races at 5 rounds, with best 7 results counting.

The FIA GT1 World Championship was a world championship sports car racing series, developed by the SRO Group and regulated by the Fédération Internationale de l'Automobile (FIA), that was held from 2010 to 2012. It featured multiple grand tourer race cars—based on production road cars and conforming with the GT1 (2010–2011) and GT3 (2012) regulations—that competed in one-hour races on multiple continents. All cars were performance balanced, with weight and restrictor adjustments, to artificially equalise their performance. Championships were awarded each season for drivers and teams.
