The Formula Ford Junior Championship single seater category is famous throughout the world of motor sport and gives many racing drivers their first step into car racing after go-karts. The British Formula Ford Championship is regarded as the best in the world, with drivers from across the world moving to Britain to compete.

There is also a Formula Ford Festival race at Brands Hatch, where drivers from other Formula Ford categories from all over the world come and compete.
