BDC sprint returns to Comps calendar

The Bentley Drivers Club is delighted to announce the return of its sprint event in 2025 after an absence of several years.

The Club’s Competitions Committee will be hosting a sprint meeting at Mallory Park (pictured) on Saturday 26 April.

The event will be supported by several other recognised motorsport car clubs, some of which will be running championship rounds.

The planned format will allow for competitors to complete a maximum of four runs, with at least two of these counting towards the end of season Club awards. After being released from the pitlane where the timing starts, cars will negotiate three chicanes over the 1,666-metre course before ending their run just after the Bus Stop.

Mallory Park is known as one of the UK’s most welcoming circuits and the event will be open to spectators, with full catering and other facilities available. So do bring your family and friends – and make a day of it!

Entries will open online via the BDC website in February (details to follow in due course), with the format for submission similar to that used to enter for BDC Silverstone.

Competitions Captain Harry Johnson said: “The return of the BDC sprint is hugely exciting news and a fantastic addition to the Club’s annual motorsport calendar. 

“We would love to see as many Bentleys as possible out on track – so please support the event by submitting your entry as early as possible. And bring family and friends, too – unlike our old venue, MIRA, Mallory Park welcomes spectators. We look forward to seeing you all there for what should be a superb day’s motorsport.”
