2007 Renault Clio Cup United Kingdom

The 2007 Elf Renault Clio Cup United Kingdom season began at Brands Hatch on 31 March and finished after 12 races over 10 events at Thruxton on 14 October. The Championship was won by Martin Byford driving for his own Z Speed Racing team, despite not winning a race.
Race Format.
After Friday testing at each event the field would be split into two groups (group A for drivers finishing the session in odd-numbered positions and group B for drivers finishing in even-numbered positions). Each group would then have separate qualifying sessions on the Saturday which set the grids for the heats. The heat races set the grid for Sunday's championship race, where the winner of the heat containing the fastest lap time of the two heats would start on pole, with the remainder of the field from that heat filling the pole side of the grid in finishing order. The drivers from the other heat would fill the other side of the grid, again, in finishing order. The last few (the number varied from circuit to circuit) finishers in each heat would fail to qualify for the championship race but would be classed as reserves should there be any non-starters.
At meetings where the entry was smaller than the maximum number of permitted starters, the race format was the same as in previous years.

All competitors raced in Renault Clio Cup 197s.
