      I know this is a late reply, this is one of the best eras of any form of Motorsport. It lasted the entire decade.

    Great clips mate, it's great to see this in their entirety. It's a shame we can only by 'highlights 'DVDs these days.

      I know your comment is 3 years old, so I apologise for dredging this up, but Duke Video still sells the season review DVDs of this era. They're more than just highlights, they normally show all rounds in full, and normally contain 'extras' as well, like behind the scenes stuff.

      I enjoy physical media and will be sure to get some BTCC goodness and late 90’s/early 2000’s Le Mans action on the go

    Great upload. Love that it’s the full highlights programme as shown on BBC Grandstand and not the edited highlights that was on the DUKE video and DVD release. Thank you.

      A cracking looking car. Just don't think they were particularly reliable or robust sadly

    The reason for the Renault suspension being so good was that is wasn't within the rules. say no more.. I know cause I was there. These were the days when BTCC was as important to manufacturers as F1, consequently the budgets were enormous , if you were a fan you wouldn't ever see the amount of money or time that actually went into these cars .. I was amazed when I joined one of these teams how advanced and how much technology went into what appears to be something very similar that you can buy. but believe me it wasn't....Good days ..oh and the oil coming out of the Volvo,, it was designed to .I can honestly say that we were probably one of the only Teams that didn't Cheat or bend the rules and were successful. I will always be proud of us . Not Volvo

    Just a car on fire at 18:50. Not even that big of a deal in the context of BTCC. What an incredible era of racing!

    I used to watch btcc religiously during this era. It lost its magic in the 2000's and I gave up on it.
    This era, was the best in motorsport. I think every petrolhead would know who each driver was and their team. Typical British thinking, snatching defeat from the jaws of victory 🤦‍♂️
