2002 British Touring Car Championship

The 2002 Green Flag MSA British Touring Car Championship was the 45th British Touring Car Championship (BTCC) season.

Changes for 2002
2002 saw a few changes to the race format over 2001. Firstly - qualifying only set the grid for the first race of the weekend, with the second race's grid being set by the results of the opener. Secondly, the sprint race/feature race format was scrapped in favour of two sprint races on race day.

Malaysian manufacturer Proton made their debut in the series with a pair of Proton Impians for James Thompson and Andy Priaulx.

Peugeot opted to end their works programme after just one year owing to a lack of results as well as a refocusing of marketing towards their WRC driver Richard Burns. The Peugeot 406 Coupé they used in 2001 continued in the hands of Vic Lee Racing.
