Fans of super-sized motorsport are in for a real treat at Convoy in the Park on 12/13 August 2023, with confirmation this morning that the event will feature an 'International Truck Prix' for the first time in addition to rounds of the British Truck Racing Championship (BTRC).

This means that the popular summer event at the East Midlands venue will now feature nine headline races, with five heavyweight BTRC clashes in addition to four International Truck Prix contests. These special races will feature mixture of British and International competitors.

The International Truck Prix joins a busy on-circuit line-up which is also expected to include the Pickup Truck Racing Championship and plenty more action from the BARC portfolio.

Off the circuit, there will be an extensive show truck display, featuring over 1000 immaculately presented road going haulers. Beyond that there will be manufacturer displays and demonstrations and a comprehensive trade area. There will be funfair rides, on-stage entertainment and much more for the family too.

Steve Thomas, Truck Sport UK Director, said: "We're excited to finally be able to share the news that we will be staging the inaugural International Truck Prix at Donington Park next year. This has been something we have wanted to do for a while now and thanks to the support and hard work of so many behind the scenes, we can now make it a reality - and it promises to be quite the spectacle.

"We've had plenty of interest from some of the most notable drivers and teams that compete in Europe and around the world so I'm confident in saying we will have one of the most competitive truck racing grids ever assembled come August.

Tickets for the 2023 edition of Convoy in the Park will go on sale in due course. Tickets for the BTRC events at Brands Hatch and Snetterton are available now - click here for more information.
