iRacing has not only introduced new cars and tracks to its users in 2023 but has also surprised them with a special event: the 2023 BRSCC iRacing FF1600 Festival. The British Racing & Sports Car Club iRacing FF1600 Festival is an event that aims to emulate the Formula Ford Festival held around these October days every year.
Just like many categories in the racing world have their special events or races, Formula Ford is no exception. For over 50 years, this event has produced races, excitement, memories, and champions like no other. During that race weekend, it brings together some of the best drivers in the category from the UK, Ireland, and abroad, all competing to be the latest addition to the illustrious Honor Roll. Eddie Irvine, Mark Weber, and Jenson Button, to name a few, have been among the notable winners of the Festival. It has consistently proven to be a memorable experience that all the victors proudly cherish and fondly remember their weekend of glory.
The unique feature of the event is that after the qualification, the drivers are divided into elimination series or heats, followed by a last-chance race, to determine who and in what position start the grand final of the event.
