The first Champions of the Future Academy Program UK series ends at Whilton Mill on 21 to 23 August, after Silverstone, PFi and Larkhall.

The first season of the Champions of the Future Academy Program UK Series, run by RGMMC, finishes at Whilton Mill from 21 to 23 August, where its first UK champions will be crowned.

The series uses equal equipment in Mini 60, OK Junior and OK, and has visited four very different circuits this year: Silverstone, PFi, Larkhall and now Whilton Mill. The Northamptonshire track is 1,200 metres long with 13 turns, and drivers including Lando Norris, George Russell and Freddie Slater raced there early in their careers.

Dan Parker, Motorsport UK's Head of Karting, said the response from competitors and teams had been very positive, praised the equal equipment format and said Motorsport UK looked forward to expanding its work with RGMMC in 2027.

Entries for the finale were open at the time of the announcement.
