Petrolheads rejoice as Goodwood Festival of Speeds commences - 15 pictures

The four-day Festival of Speed event has commenced at the stunning Goodwood grounds.

From the spectacular Red Arrows display to the supercar run to road bikes, dirt bikes and drifting there is something for everyone at the Festival of Speed which started on July 11 and will continue until July 14. This year the Goodwood Revival will become the first historic racing event to run all its races on sustainable fuel, whilst also celebrating the legendary John Surtees and welcoming over 100 beach buggies for the track opening parade.

The Duke of Richmond CBE DL, founder of Goodwood’s motorsport events, said: “The 2024 motorsport event season is well underway, and having already hosted a spectacular Members’ Meeting in April for our Goodwood Road Racing Club Members and Fellows, and with the Festival of Speed just two weeks away, we are thrilled to announce the dates for our 2025 events. Year on year, our events continue to grow, innovate and develop, with 2025 serving as no exception – it’s certainly going to be another unmissable year at Goodwood.”

Here are 15 pictures from the first day of the unmissable motor event:
