MG's British Touring Car Championship effort of Anthony Reid, Colin Turkington and Warren Hughes head this weekend to a track where the MG has excelled 🃏꧙in the past, Brands Hatch.

Rounds three and four of the championship are held at the dramatic Kent circuit and there's sure to be a weekend full of action. The circuit is one that has traditionally suited the MG 🎐ZS, and this was confirmed when Warren Hughes set the fastest time of the day at the season launch and test day earlier this month.

Warren also set the fastest lap of the day at a wet and wild weekend in Mondello Par▨k for the season start two weeks ago, and Brands is a circuit where the MG ZS won last year.

"It is important that we come away from Brands having clawed back some of what was lost at Mondello," Warren said in the build-up to this weekend's racing. "Thankfully the car is fast and again seems very well suited to the characteristics of Brands. If we could repeat the results of last season's race ♏at Brands that would be ideal."

Despite the MG's suitability for the circuit the competition in the series is undeniably intense. "I'm not taking anything for granted though because the championship is tough," says Warren, "and we are going to have to be at the top of ജour game to get the right result. A win o꧟r two is what I want though."

Anthony Reid also collected silverware at Brands Hatch last year and will be trying to capitalise on the fact that he will be running 24kg𒊎 lighter than some of his colleagues. "After Mondello we'll be looking to turn things around," says the Scotsman. "I was particularly encouraged by our improved pace in Ireland but I'll be wanting to turn that into positive race ✤results this weekend."

Colin Turkington, who recently posted second fastest time at the BTCC test at Thruxton, is determined to put the troubles of Mondello Park well and truly behind him. "I'm looking forward to Brands Hatch with a renewed confidence and optimism," said MG XPOWE🎀R's latest recruit. "I performed well at the BTCC test here last month and qualified fourth and fifth in the corresponding rounds last year. I'll be looking to the strength of the MG ZS to improve my position this time around."

For MG Sport and Racing director Kim Johnson the Brands Hatch weekend looks good. "The chassis of the MG ZS has a tradition of being well suited to the Indy Circuit at Brands Hatch," he explains. "In 2002 the circuit provided us with the highlight of season with a double win and we'll cert𒁏ainly be working hard towards a repeat performance. We have the opportunity to qualify well and post some positive results."
