BTC Racing Awards 2026

The event began with a welcome speech from our Team Principal, Marios Katzis, who reflected on the highs and lows of the season. From podium finishes to 1am engine changes, his stories highlighted the determination, resilience and teamwork that define BTC Racing.

Guests then enjoyed a fascinating insight into the history of BTC Racing from Allan Tyrer, our Chief of Operations. Allan explored the significance of Brooklands in British motorsport and shared how its rich heritage continues to inspire the team today.

We were also delighted to welcome George Antoniou, a former BTC student who has gone on to become a BTC Racing driver. George shared his journey through motorsport, offering an inspiring perspective on where dedication and hard work can lead.
