BMW Race Driver Series Scholarship

The BMW Race Driver Series Scholarship is our way of giving new drivers a chance to step onto the grid. Each year, one standout participant earns a fully funded seat in the NEXEN Tyre E46 Class for the upcoming season, driving a prepared Scholarship Car.

The Scholarship is decided at the Scholarship Day, held annually at Hampton Downs Motorsport Park. Drivers are tested on track, assessed for development potential, and interviewed by a panel of judges. At the end of the day, one winner is chosen and awarded the Scholarship.

For the 2025–2026 season, the Scholarship Car will be driven by Darren Mudford.

Over the years, the Scholarship has launched the careers of talented drivers who have gone on to make their mark in the Series.

📅 Next Scholarship Day: Saturday, 15 August 2026
