BRSCC GERRIT VAN KOUWEN ANNIVERSARY FORMULA FORD FESTIVAL | 19/20 OCTOBER 2024 | SUNDAY STREAM

As Autumn is in full swing, October means only one thing for the British Racing & Sports Car Club - Festival season! For the 53rd time since it first took place in 1972, the prestigious Formula Ford Festival is back for another year as many of the best and brightest in Formula Ford racing from both the British Isles and overseas descend on the speed bowl that is the Brands Hatch Indy circuit in Kent to fight it out for supremacy. This year’s event takes on an extra special tone, as the 2024 edition is being run in memorial of one of its greatest champions - 1984 Festival winner Gerrit van Kouwen. The event takes on the Dutchman’s name and is known as the “BRSCC Gerrit van Kouwen Anniversary Formula Ford Festival for this edition, meaning everyone competing this weekend will be hoping to emulate his success 40 years ago. We are proud and honoured that the van Kouwen family have chosen to associate Gerrit’s name this year with an event that he dearly loved and cherished, and was a regular attendee of as a pure motorsport enthusiast. The weekend will also see the conclusion to the season for all three of the BRSCC's Mazda MX-5 contest with provisional titles on the line across the board. The Nankang Tyre CityCar Cup & Student Motorsport Challenge will also crown its champions-elect, too, and the BRSCC Evolution Trophy contests its final races of 2024 on the timetable also.
