Burton tyre giant Pirelli will be taking centre stage at this year's British GT Championships at Donington Park, with all the cars featuring the company's flagship tyres.

The finals will take place on Sunday, September 24, as drivers battle it out to be crowned champions in GT3 and GT4.

After victory at Brands Hatch, Rick Parfitt Jr and Seb Morris are leading the way for Team Parker Racing, but Jon Minshaw and Phil Keen are only 10.5 points behind for the title of GT3. Meanwhile, Will Tregurtha and Stuart Middleton lead the way in GT4 with a 25-point margin over Alex Reed and David Pittard.

Donington Park famously hosted one Formula One race in 1993, best remembered for Ayrton Senna's victory. It is also regarded as Pirelli's home circuit in the UK, just a 14-mile drive from its factory in Burton.

At every round of the British GT season, the P Zero DHD tyre has been supplied for the GT3 class and the P Zero DH is provided for GT4. The Cinturato WH rain tyre will be on standby for both classes in the event of wet weather.

Jonathan Wells, Pirelli UK motorsport manager, said: "Donington Park provides a similar challenge to Brands Hatch with a fast and flowing layout. With the championship finely-poised in GT3 in particular, getting the most from the tyres in the two-hour race will be crucial."
