2025 is upon us, which means that the time is already upon us to start looking forward another superb motorsport season across the MSV group. A wide range of events are slated to take place at Brands Hatch, Donington Park, Oulton Park, Snetterton and Cadwell Park over the coming 12 months, whilst Circuito de Navarra in northern Spain looks forward to its first full season following last year’s major redevelopments.

Tickets for many of this year’s race events, including the vast majority of promoted highlight fixtures, are on sale now advance admission prices reduced compared to full price entry on the gate. And if you’re a regular visitor you can make a bigger savings still, by purchasing a season pass which includes year-long access for one excellent price.

Another Bennetts BSB blockbuster

The Bennetts British Superbike Championship returns for what should be another season to remember in 2025, with no fewer than eight events at MSV circuits. This includes the season opener at Oulton Park on 3-5 May, in addition to further early season visits to Donington Park (16-18 May) and Snetterton (20-22 June).

Bennetts BSB will then rocket through the middle of the year with Brands Hatch’s traditional height of summer bash on the Grand Prix circuit (25-27 July) soon followed by Cadwell Park’s annual bank holiday extravaganza on 23-25 August. Donington Park hosts a second round on 5-7 September before Oulton Park (3-5 October) and Brands Hatch (17-19 October) bring things to a close following a much awaited return to TT Circuit Assen.

Star riders to look out for will include reigning champion Kyle Ryde, who returns with OMG Racing UK, alongside his rival from 2024 Tommy Bridewell who will be aiming to reclaim the crown with Honda Racing UK. Others to look out for will include returning 2022 champion Bradley Ray, Glenn Irwin and Rory Skinner.

International showpiece events

Both Brands Hatch and Donington Park will host flagship international events once again this season with GT World Challenge Europe Powered by AWS and the MOTUL FIM Superbike World Championship both returning to British shores this summer.

World class drivers from across the globe will star when Europe’s premier GT series returns to Kent for a pair of hour-long races on 3/4 May. Machinery from McLaren, BMW, Porsche and more of the planet’s leafing prestige manufacturers could be represented.

The 2024 WorldSBK season will arrive in the East Midlands for three races, with reigning champion Toprak Razgatlioglu returning following his stunning showing at last year’s fixture. Home heroes to cheer on will include Alex and Sam Lowes, Scott Redding and Jonathan Rea.
