Brands Hatch Race circuit
F1 POLECAT track tour:
FRIDAY 30TH MAY 2025
In May 2025, whilst undertaking interviews with Minitron in the paddock, i got the chance to take a tour around one of the most legendary race circuits in the UK, Brands Hatch.
This historic racetrack has 2 circuit layouts, 11 corners covering 3.916 kilometers per lap. Overall the Brands Hatch race track is unrivaled when it comes to any race calendar for so many motorsports beyond F1, and its a favourite of many drivers.
It’s most known for hosting the ever exhilarating GT World Challenge Europe and the unwaveringly epic Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship, reeling in motorsport fanatics from all across the globe.
In previous years Brands Hatch was indeed the second home to the Formula 1 British Grand Prix, alternating with Silverstone. It’s grandstands have borne witness to legends like Alain Prost, Ayrton Senna, James Hunt and Niki Lauda.
So using my F1 Polecat charm, I managed to get myself into the left hand seat of the Track Safety Car during the lunch break of one of the driver’s Test Days, following the race lines of some of these legendary drivers of the past.
Join me on the lap as my awesome on-duty safety driver Bob commentates through the lap, and as you can tell I was utterly thrilled to get this one in the bag.

I’m beyond grateful for such an incredible and unforgettable experience. Brand hatch you are truly one of the greats!
