Thrills, Spills, Spins and Donuts at Goodwood Festival Of Speed!
As usual the weekend was an explosion for all senses…sounds, sights and of beautiful machines, the smell of burning rubber from spins and donuts and the taste of typically unhealthy snacks! What a great event – some pics below! Weather was hot and sunny and I was lucky enough to see Lewis Hamilton and Desire Wilson (one of the only women to race an F1 car) being interviewd!
It looks like this time out and change of intensity worked well judging by his and McLaren’s performance in qualifying for the German GP this afternoon.
Anyway, I digress….back to Goodwood! Chris Evan’s collection of Ferarri’s was truely a sight to see – so too were the 1960s/70s concept cars from Alfa Romeo and Vauxhall (….yes a Vauxhall..I was surprised too!!)
But the car that stole the show was the Cartier winner – the 1938 Hispano-Suiza!
Had a great time at the event. Can’t wait for next year!!
Which one’s your favourite?
Talk to y’all soon
