Battling against 32-degree heat, many petrol heads were in attendance for the 2023 Goodwood Revival, a three-day celebration of culture and cars from the 1940s, 50s and 60s.<\/p>\n
Whilst the Revival has taken place regularly since 1998, this year\u2019s show was particularly special as it marked 75 years since the famous motor circuit opened in 1948.<\/p>\n
Many famous faces in the world of motor sport were in attendance, with fans gathering as racing legend Sir Jackie Stewart was reunited with the Tyrell-Cosworth 006.<\/p>\n
Jackie had previously used the car during the 1973 season, helping him win the Drivers\u2019 Championship for the second time.<\/p>\n
Plenty of special cars were also displayed at the event, including a Cooper T53 raced by Stirling Moss during the early 1960s, a one-off Bizzarrini P538S, and a selection of Land Rovers used by the Royal Family.<\/p>\n

However, if you do run out of fuel you switch the lever to the other side, and you\u2019ve got a quarter of a gallon of spare fuel.\u201d<\/p>\n Don’t miss… <\/strong> We use your sign-up to provide content in ways you’ve consented to and to improve our understanding of you.
