The Goodwood Festival of Speed, a hallmark of the British motorsport calendar, will take place at the Goodwood Estate this weekend from Thursday, July 11 to Sunday, July 14, 2024.

Goodwood is held every year in West Sussex, England, and is a multi-day event that showcases cars from the F1 world and beyond.

In the early 1990s, Lord March inherited the estate and was keen on reviving the racing spirit at Goodwood, deciding to host a Sunday event on the estate after being denied permission to hold a race.

What began as a one-day event has flourished into a celebrated commemoration of motorsport heritage, displaying not only the esteemed past, but also the exhilarating present and future.

From the pioneering days of the 1894 Paris-Rouen Trial, the festival will feature a dazzling array of vehicles powered by everything from classic petrol and diesel to cutting-edge electric, hybrid, and AI-powered machines.

FOS will also pay homage to several significant anniversaries. Notably, the event will commemorate the 75th birthday of the legendary Niki Lauda, alongside his first grand prix victory and his final world championship triumph.

But perhaps the biggest draw for F1 fans will be the star-studded driver line-up. Leading the charge is none other than the reigning three-time world champion Max Verstappen who will be piloting his title-winning Red Bull RB16B on the final day of the Festival - Sunday, July 14th.

The Dutchman will be joined by two-time world champion Fernando Alonso, who will be driving the new Aston Martin Valiant on Friday 12th.

Sergio Perez of Red Bull will also be taking to the Hill in the RB19 rocket ship of a car, along with Daniel Ricciardo in the 2011 championship-winning RB7.

Williams team-mates Alex Albon and Logan Sargeant will be sharing driving duties in Keke Rosberg’s 1982 championship-winning FW08.

And let's not forget that a variety of new cars will be showcased, including the Red Bull RB17 hypercar designed by Adrian Newey, making this event a must-see for any motorsport fan and car lover.
