Mitas confirmed as sponsor for 2025 BTPA British Championship series

The British Tractor Pulling Association (BTPA) has confirmed that Mitas will be the title sponsor of its 2025 British Championship points series — backing all five rounds of the upcoming season.

The series kicks off on 10–11 May at Scorton, Lancashire, and will culminate in a three-day finale over the August Bank Holiday weekend at Great Eccleston.

The announcement further strengthens Mitas’s role in competitive tractor pulling, a niche motorsport that demands high-performance, purpose-built tyres.

Five events, one championship

The full calendar for the 2025 Mitas-sponsored BTPA British Championship is as follows:

▪ Scorton, Lancashire – 10–11 May
▪ BA Stores, Aberdeenshire – 27–28 June
▪ Great Eccleston, Lancashire – July (date TBC)
▪ Brechin, Angus – 8–9 August
▪ Great Eccleston, Lancashire – 22–24 August

The final event takes place across three days, incorporating part of the summer Bank Holiday weekend, and is expected to draw one of the biggest crowds of the season.

Competition tyres with pulling power

Mitas is among the few global tyre brands to offer tyres developed specifically for tractor pulling competition. Its PowerPull 30.5L-32 and PowerPull 24.5-32 tyres were designed in direct collaboration with pulling teams, offering optimised grip and durability on the track.

While tractor pulling is a niche category, it’s one that aligns closely with Mitas’s broader specialisation in high-stress, off-road applications. The brand’s presence in agriculture, construction, and motorsport gives it both the expertise and the audience for a sponsorship of this scale.

Motorsport focus across disciplines

Although known widely for its agricultural tyres, Mitas is also active across a range of motorsports, supplying tyres for karting, speedway, motocross, and more.

The brand is part of Yokohama TWS and operates manufacturing facilities in Europe and the US. Its support for the BTPA Championship follows a recent trend in the industry, after Alliance announced its sponsorship of the European Tractor Pulling Championship last week - Read More >

The BTPA has encouraged fans to stay updated with event details via its official events page.
