Sat 26th July 2008 Full details of the 2009 HiQ MSA British Touring Car Championship have been revealed.

Circuits have now been allocated to each of the provisional race dates that were announced earlier this month.

As in 2008, the season will start and end at Brands Hatch, although there is confirmation that the finale will definitely take place on the legendary Grand Prix circuit.

BTCC Series Director Alan Gow comments: "As is now traditional, our 10 meeting calendar travels the length and breadth of the country from Knockhill in Scotland to Thruxton in the South of England. As ever, fans in the Midlands are well catered for with rounds at Donington Park, Silverstone and Rockingham while visits to Oulton Park in the North West, Croft in the North East and Snetterton in Norfolk are well-established favourites with spectators, teams, drivers and sponsors.

"I'm particularly pleased to confirm that next year's BTCC title decider will definitely be held on the world-famous Brands Hatch Grand Prix circuit - already it promises to be a fitting finale for what is certain to be yet another season of unpredictable, dramatic and exhilarating competition."
