The Island Car Centre Sandown Sprint will return to Culver Parade over the weekend of 25th and 26th March 2023. The first closed-road motor racing event held on the Isle of Wight was staged in April this year and now an agreement has been reached to allow its return in 2023.
Tickets go on sale from Friday, 25th November via the event website (isleofwightspeedtrials.co.uk). Once again, overall spectator numbers will be limited, so motor racing fans are advised to book early. The cost of admission has been held at £10 per adult, with concessions.
The Sandown Sprint will involve 100 cars competing on a specially constructed circuit, at Sandown’s Culver Parade, with the start in Fort Street and finishing in Yaverland. 2022s fastest lap time was set by experienced Island driver Will Nicholls, who will be returning next year with the hope to better his time. Will commented; “The Sprint is a fantastic opportunity to bring motor racing to the Isle of Wight. We had a great crowd to enjoy the first event and I'm sure the competition will be just as close next year. I’ll be entering a car again and looking forward to defending my title.”
Two-time world rally champion Miki Biasion entered the first Sandown Sprint, courtesy of Chichester-based Rally Replay. Organisers are looking forward to announcing the headline drivers and cars for 2023 in the next few weeks.
