The most consistently exciting racing series on Earth returns for a new season this weekend!
32 drivers will battle it out over a 30 race season to be crowned champion of one of the world's oldest championships. Five new drivers, one returning team, one new model of car and increased manufacturer support, along with more talent and less dross, promise to make this season one of the closest in recent years.
