AVON TYRES CATERHAM ROADSPORT CHAMPIONSHIP

Strong grids and fantastically close racing typify the Roadsport series, Caterham's follow-on championship from the hugely successful Caterham Academy starter series. The cars are all powered by 1.6-litre engines and have an impressive power to weight ratio and phenomenal handling thanks to their Avon CR500 treaded race rubber.

Although primarily for drivers fresh from the Academy, other relatively inexperienced or new competitors may be allowed to join. The cars run in road legal trim, and competitors can, and often do, drive them home from the circuit. 

Sharing its calendar with the Tracksport and Supersport championships, plus the mighty Superlights at most rounds, this year’s Roadsport calendar features many highlights including a mid-summer overseas trip to the Nürburgring in Germany.
