Such is the nature of the fastest most advanced breed of motorcars that the pace of development and evolution was exponential even then. The transition from front to mid-engine, the implementation of the 1.5-litre engines – it’s all there on-track at 2017’s Goodwood Revival. What’s your favourite era of F1 from Revival? What’s your favourite car? It might be a bit of a cliché but we’re still amazed by the lovely Vanwall and in awe of that magical moment with legendary period-driver Tony Brooks behind the wheel.
