Yesterday the gates opened for the first time since 2019 as the legendary Festival of Speed presented by Mastercard returned to Goodwood!
Running as a pilot event as part of the Events Research Programme, the Festival of Speed is welcoming back fans over the next 3 days for its thrills, drama, stars, cars and interactive experiences.
Here are the highlights from day 1, but there are many ways to still get involved from home and absorb all the action:
Three free live-streams will be available on Goodwood Road & Racing: a full event stream, the rally stage in full and a no commentary stream for those who just want to enjoy the sounds of the cars.
The Central Feature (photographed) is built in celebration of the Lotus ethos of ‘adding lightness’, the delicate sculpture created by Unit 9, is interactive and immersive – as appealing to those watching from home as on the ground in front of it. With a specially designed accompanying app, users at the event and from afar will be able to experience the Lotus ‘Aeroad’ Central Feature.
Highlights from the event will also be shown on ITV4 next week:
- Festival of Speed Highlights 1 – ITV4 on Wednesday 14 July at 21:00
- Festival of Speed Highlights 2 – ITV4 on Wednesday 15 July at 21:00
- Future Lab Highlights – ITV4 on Friday 16 July at 21:00
