Eight races across two countries has led to a British GT Championship finale where anything could happen. #DoningtonDeciders have been intense in the past, but this is a whole other level – four crews could walk away with the GT3 crown, while three have the chance of becoming GT4 champions.

GT3

The main category should be an open-and-shut competition for 2 Seas Motorsport’s Charles Dawson & Kiern Jewiss. The Mercedes duo have been on fire since the very first round at Donington way back in April and their 28.5 point lead at the top of the standings is testament to a season where, despite a blip at Oulton Park, the pair have comfortable led in the standings throughout.

However, veteran British GT watchers know that nothing is ever certain until the final chequered flag falls – enough championship leaders have headed to Donington only to watch the trophy slip through their grasp. With an extra 20 seconds to serve in the pits, thanks to victory at Brands Hatch last time out, there’s a chink of light their three rivals can bask in – at least until Sunday afternoon.

Their nearest challengers are tied on points, with a victory at Spa putting Giacomo Petrobelli and Jonny Adam’s Blackthorn AMR Aston Martin ahead of Optimum Motorsport duo Morgan Tillbrook and Marvin Kirchhöfer. 

Consistency has been key for the former duo. Ignore the 12th at the first round, and their worst result has been fifth – collecting two podiums and that Belgian victory. Indeed, Kirchhöfer and Tillbrook have taken three podiums, but results of eighth and ninth cost them those valuable few extra points that could have dragged them closer to the leaders. 

Between them, we’d probably stake a claim on Kirchhöfer pulling off another qualifying masterclass – his speed this season has been mesmerising – to give a potentially handy advantage going into the two-hour race.

There’s one more contender to consider, though, and that’s the other side of the 2 Seas garage as Maxi Götz and Kevin Tse are 36.5 points behind but with 37.5 up for grabs they could just make an absolutely thrilling drive for the title – if absolutely everything goes their way. They’ve probably got the results to match their teammates – two wins and three podiums – but a 19th at a tricky trip to Spa cost them dearly. 

Other titles are also up for grabs, with Pro-Am also looking likely to be heading the way of Dawson and Jewiss, with a 29-point lead in those standings. Meanwhile, Silver-Am should go the way of Beechdean’s Andrew Howard and Tom Wood, who only need to finish in the points to deny Bridger Motorsport’s Johnny Ip from that class crown. 

There’s additional cars in GT3 to add to the fun, with Duncan Cameron and Matt Griffin bringing the mean green Ferrari 296 back to British GT after a clash with the European Le Mans Series at the Brands Hatch round. There’s a change in the Orange Racing by JMH stable too, as Simon Orange has to miss the finale – instead British GT’s designated substitute Matt Topham will be racing the McLaren 720S GT3 Evo alongside Marcus Clutton.

Even better than returning/changed entries, are two new ones! After a tricky season straightened out after the switch from Lotus to Ginetta, Mahiki Racing is making the step up to the big class as team boss Steven Lake steps into a McLaren GT3 alongside Josh Miller. 

Last, but certainly not least, 2023 champion Darren Leung is making a return but not in his customary BMW, and not with customary teammate Dan Harper. Instead, Leung will be in a second Blackthorn Aston Martin Vantage alongside IMSA ace Nick Yelloly to tackle this ninth round of 2025.

GT4

Lady luck has a way of catching people off guard, you think something is a dead cert and then it all flips on its head. 

That’s probably what Optimum duo Marc Warren and Jack Brown are thinking about right now.  The pair came into Brands Hatch knowing victory – something the McLaren Artura racers have been very familiar with this year, having scooped four – would have given them the title if other results had gone their way. 

But a first lap DNF, and second for nearest title challengers – now points leaders – Ravi Ramyead and Charlie Robertson, has meant it’s the latter duo who now lead by 3.5 points. That means, then, that it’s a full-on battle royale with the Century Motorsport crew hoping that their run of good form will continue all the way to the flag. 

That said, Warren and Brown will be a tough nut to crack. They’ve bounced back from sub-par results in fine fashion and Donington is a circuit they won at earlier in this season – though the BMW M4 was just behind them. History could favour Brown – a Pro-Am crew hasn’t won the overall GT4 crown since 2016, and he’s got the chance of becoming a double class champion – will the chance of making history weigh heavy? Or will it spare the pair on?

There’s a third variable in the equation, as Optimum’s second Artura of Harry George and Luca Hopkinson took a fine win at Brands Hatch to put them within a mathematical chance of the title – sitting 35.5 points down but knowing only DNFs for the cars ahead would be enough for them to pick up an unlikely piece of silverware.

GT4 Pro-Am is equally tight, with Ramyead and Robertson having 5.5 points over Warren and Brown in that competition – with only those two in contention. Meanwhile over in Silver, the second Optimum car has 11 points over Century’s second crew of Branden Templeton and Chris Salkeld – those two teams are locked together in the title battles, it would seem. 

We’ve got changes to the GT4 entry more broadly for this race, Lake and Miller’s Ginetta won’t be replaced as they step up a category, which means James Townsend will join Joe Wheeler in a Ginetta G56 – the second car of Luke Garlick and Blake Angliss remains unchanged. 

Elsewhere, we’ve got the Endurance Cup back for this last round, meaning we’ve got the return of Jon Currie and Phil Keen for Team Parker Racing, as well as Jolt Racing’s Rupert Williams and John Ingram. 

There’s one new entry to mention, as MKH Racing comes back to play for the first time since Silverstone. This round, the Aston Martin Vantage GT4 Evo will be driven by some familiar faces to followers of GT Cup as Michael Orant joins Group GTH (for GT4 cars) race-winner Owen Hizzey.

British GT’s final race of the 2025 season gets underway at 1.15pm UK time, 2.15pm in Europe, and you’ll be able to follow the whole race live on GT REPORT.
