Description
One of the longest standing categories in motorsport, Formula Ford has been the ideal proving ground for nurturing young, up and coming talent for more than 50 years and still continues to produce superstars of future today. Lack of aerodynamic aids means drivers learn how to set up and drive a race car purely on mechanical grip, teaching them valuable lessons that will stay with them for the rest of their racing careers.
The National Formula Ford Championship features a calendar that visits some of the best motorsport venues up and down the UK, with the 2022 schedule featuring stops along the way at Silverstone, Brands Hatch, Donington Park, and Snetterton, as well as another trip back to Knockhill in Scotland and visits to both Croft and Anglesey.
The championship is split into two categories the Pro Class and the Clubman Class. Drivers in the Pro Class are typically career-minded and use it as a stepping stone to reach their motorsport aspirations. Youll usually find young drivers aged between 16-25 here, with the occasional experienced driver that can keep up at the front. The Clubman class provides young rookies a chance to develop their skills away from the high pressure of the Pro class drivers, while also catering to racing enthusiasts who simply want the pleasure of racing a Formula Ford at their own pace.
Along with the main championship, there are also usually additional contests for both the Triple Crown and Tourist Trophy titles. The Triple Crown typically consists of National rounds at Southern-based venues, while the Tourist Trophy would comprise of one race meeting from each of as many of the home nations as possible (England, Scotland, Wales, Northern Ireland). The 2022 Triple Crown will comprise the National rounds at Silverstone, Brands Hatch, and Donington Park, while the Tourist Trophy will be represented by England (Snetterton), Scotland (Knockhill), and Wales (Anglesey).
