2026/27 Essex Winter Series – Announcement

While most of Europe is currently basking in sunshine and enjoying racing outdoors, the popular British based Essex Winter Series has unveiled their 2026/27 race schedule. Led by well known race announcer Oli Meggitt, the indoor EWS celebrates its 15th season this winter with 5 rounds of 1-day racing at the Deanes Sports Centre, in Thundersley, Essex. With EWS events built on a shared passion for racing and a respect for the time and effort put in by organisers and competitors alike, the series takes place on ETS-type carpet with the layout defined by their unique wooden corner kerbs. Sticking to its traditional format, qualifying is a round-by-round points system with the doors for each meeting opening at 7:30am and racing concluding around 5:00pm. In addition to the regular series, EWS International, a 2-day event that has become the UK’s top annual international Touring Car race, will takes place at the same venue over the weekend of December 5 & 6th.
