Race of Champions: Team race

Our four budget cars and drivers fight it out on the Wembley track

Wembley has never seen anything like it. Not only has the pitch been turned into a racetrack for the international Race of Champions, but we’ve somehow persuaded the organisers to let us loose on the pristine Tarmac in our £1000 Challenge cars...
