From the Siemens Electric Chopper to the De Tomaso P72, the hillclimb has welcomed the weird and the wonderful, piloted by professionals from throughout the upper echelons of motorsport.
With an excellent team of photographers on the ground, we’re spoilt for choice with fabulous photos, but we’ve managed to narrow it down to our favourite 15.
Starting with an epic shot of the Aston Martin Central Feature, scroll down to see what went on on day one of the 2019 Festival.
Photography by Pete Summers, Joe Harding, Drew Gibson and James Lynch.
