PM Junior Championship Prototype Set for Public Debut at Thruxton BTCC Weekend

Visitors to this weekend's Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship event at Thruxton will have the opportunity to see the prototype PM Junior Championship car in person for the very first time. 

Marking another significant milestone in the build-up to the inaugural 2027 season, the championship will showcase both the prototype race car and its M-Sport engine, giving prospective drivers, families, teams and fans an exclusive first look at Britain's newest junior racing series. 

The PM Junior Championship display will be located in front of the Thruxton Centre, where members of the championship team will be on hand throughout the weekend to answer questions and provide information on the series, including driver eligibility, technical specifications, running costs and the opportunities available for young drivers looking to take the next step in their motorsport careers. 

Designed for drivers aged 14-17, the PM Junior Championship has been created to provide a clear, professional and cost-controlled pathway into circuit racing. Competing on the support bill of the Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship, the series combines high-performance machinery with a controlled technical specification to deliver close, competitive racing while keeping costs manageable. 

The prototype on display features the core elements that will define the championship car, including an M-Sport developed engine, a Quaife sequential gearbox and differential package, and a Cosworth electronics system, all supplied by technical partners with extensive experience at the highest levels of motorsport. 

Visitors interested in learning more about the PM Junior Championship are encouraged to visit the display throughout the weekend, where the team will be available to discuss the championship, the car and the opportunities available to prospective drivers, teams and commercial partners. 

Looking ahead, preparations are also underway for the prototype to make its first public on-track demonstration during a Kwik Fit British Touring Car Championship event later this season, giving fans the opportunity to see and hear the car in action ahead of the championship's debut in 2027. 

For championship and commercial enquiries during the Thruxton weekend, representatives from the PM Junior Championship team will be available throughout the event.
