The first event preview of 2024!

27 March 2024

Miata Trophy is about to make its hotly-anticipated return!

The winter break is finally almost over. On April 13th, two generations of Mazda MX-5 will descend onto the Silverstone National circuit for the opening two rounds of the 2024 Miata Trophy season. With all the action taking place on a single Saturday, it’s set to be a fantastic occasion and a day brimmed full of exhilarating racing.

There’s plenty of reasons to get excited for Silverstone. Not only will it be the first racing action of the year, but also the championship’s debut at the Northamptonshire circuit. This means it’ll be the first opportunity for competitors to take on some of the UK’s most infamous corners, such as Copse, Luffield and Brooklands, with Miata Trophy. Moreover, Silverstone will mark the first outing for Miata Trophy’s new-for-2024 ND Class, for the fourth-generation of Mazda MX-5, further heightening anticipation levels.

All eyes will be firmly fixed on seeing which driver is able to kickstart their season in the best way possible, with the action expected to be extremely competitive. Miata Trophy’s inaugural Champion Declan Lee is amongst those expected to line up on the grid at Silverstone and the Hills Motorsport driver will surely be looking to start this season in the same rich vein of form that he ended 2023 in. However, a range of new and familiar faces will all be trying to stop Lee from doing so and it’ll be fascinating to see who comes out on top in each race. Bring it on!

Just as much fascination will surround the first SuperPole session of the season. SuperPole is a pulsating one-lap shootout for the front of the grid, contested by the five fastest competitors from each class in the morning’s qualifying session. Topping SuperPole doesn’t just require raw pace, but also the ability to remain calm and deliver under pressure. Which driver will rise to the occasion at Silverstone? Only time will tell.
