In Season 5 Episode 8 of The Lone Road iRacing Podcast, we explore the incredible history behind the FF1600 Festival, from its origins in British motorsport in 1972 to its unique heat-racing format on iRacing.

🏁 IN THIS EPISODE:

• The history of the real-world Festival
• Why Brands Hatch became its legendary home
• Famous winners including Jenson Button and Johnny Herbert
• How the iRacing FF1600 Festival works
• Why heat racing creates a completely different challenge
• Should iRacing introduce more knockout-style events?

📰 IN PULSE:

We discuss Tony Gardner's latest iRacing Downshift appearance, including the Lamborghini Temerario GT3, new circuits, career mode, graphics development and whether iRacing is taking on too many projects.

📬 IRACING AGONY UNCLE:

"You've got to leave me space!"

What exactly is racing room? When should you leave another driver space, and does sticking your nose into a corner automatically give you the right to be there?

The iRacing CONSPIT FF1600 Festival takes place 30–31 October 2026 at Brands Hatch Indy.
