10 reasons to attend the Goodwood Festival of Speed

It’s almost two years since Goodwood last hosted a public motorsport event, but the stars, cars and fans are now set to flock back this weekend. Here are 10 of the key elements that will make this year’s Festival of Speed unmissable

Nowhere else can a motorsport fan encounter such a vast range of moving history from such a variety of motorsport categories than at the Goodwood Festival of Speed, which makes its welcome return this weekend after the COVID-19 pandemic caused 2020's event to be cancelled.

From Formula 1 icons to Group C sportscar greats, giants of the World Rally Championship stages and oval-conquering Indycars, over the next four days the grounds of the famous estate will be a rich melting pot of legendary machinery as past and present heroes take in a reminder of all that makes motorsport good.
