Description

The Renault UK Clio Cup is Renault’s premier motor sporting activity in Great Britain and also recognised as the ‘must-do’ racing category for drivers aspiring to future touring car stardom. All its races take place at the British Touring Car Championship’s high-profile events – meaning it receives live free-to-air TV coverage on ITV4 while also appearing in front of huge trackside crowds (avg. 38,000+). Great news for teams, drivers and sponsors… It is no coincidence that top BTCC names such as Mat Jackson, Ashley Sutton, Andrew Jordan, Colin Turkington, Aron Smith, Jack Goff, Senna Proctor and Ant Whorton-Eales have all come from the UK Clio Cup. That’s not to mention a number of other leading BTCC figures with strong Renault Sport backgrounds, most notably Jason Plato... Overseas in touring cars 2013 UK Clio Cup champ Josh Files won 2016’s German TCR title. Meanwhile Robert Huff, another ex-UK Clio Cup racer, will be chasing a second World Touring Car crown in 2017 to add to the one he won in 2012. Elsewhere Jonathan Adam and Tom Onslow-Cole, UK Clio Cup champions in 2005 and 2006, have plenty going for them. Adam won his second British GT crown in 2016 while, after international 24H Series title success in 2015, Onslow-Cole has been confirmed as a factory BMW driver in 2017 in European GT competition. The list goes on… The UK Clio Cup uses the latest ‘fourth generation’ of Clio Renault Sport – the 220 Trophy – complete with potent 1.6 turbocharged engine plus steering wheel-mounted six-speed paddleshift gearbox. Identical racing tyres are supplied by another legendary motor sport name, Michelin. The championship is famed for producing exhilarating doorhandle-to-doorhandle action which in turn provides plenty of twists, drama and unpredictability – something every sporting audience craves. Furthermore 2017 marks the start of a new three-year commitment to stay with the BTCC’s events through to the end of 2019 at least – meaning a continuation of live coverage on ITV4. There is plenty to celebrate.
