It's time to get ready for the 2026 Goodwood Revival presented by Dunlop! The entry list for this year's event has landed, so let's take a closer look at the cars, bikes, drivers and riders preparing to embrace the atmosphere and race for victory on the historic Motor Circuit.

The RAC TT Celebration presented by Dunlop is of course the headline attraction of the weekend, and a host of motorsport stars will be soaking up the pressure to bring home historic motorsport's grandest crown. Formula 1 World Champion Jenson Button will be out for victory once again in his 'CUT 8' Jaguar E-type, but he'll face competition from fellow Champion Jacques Villeneuve in the 'CUT 7' E-type, four-time Indy 500 winner Hélio Castroneves, who'll be sharing an AC Cobra, and two-time BTCC Champion Tom Ingram, winner of the past two RAC TT Celebrations, who'll go for the hat-trick in another Cobra.
Four-time IndyCar Champion Dario Franchitti will climb into the savage TVR Griffith 400 which has made quite the name for itself in recent years, while fellow IndyCar star Scott Dixon will pilot a 'semi-lightweight' E-type. Seven-time NASCAR Cup Series Champion Jimmie Johnson will also return to the RAC TT Celebration grid in the lone Lister-Jaguar Coupe, while three-time Le Mans 24 Hours winner André Lotterer will share the eye-catching Jaguar E-type Lightweight 'lowdrag' coupe.

Part 1 of the St. Mary's Trophy presented by Motul will kick off the competitive track action on Friday evening with a grid packed with motorsport legends from across the globe. Jenson Button, who's going to be a busy man out on track, will be racing his own Lotus Cortina at Goodwood for the first time. He'll be joined by Jimmie Johnson, who'll be driving his own Alfa Romeo Giulia Sprint GTA, while Hélio Castroneves, Dario Franchitti, André Lotterer will also be in Alfas.
Goodwood Revival debutant and 2020 Formula E Champion Antonio Felix da Costa will drive a Jaguar MkII, towering over a flock of Minis which will be out in force once again with two-time V8 SuperTourers Champion Greg Murphy, Karun Chandhok, Alex Brundle and BTCC veteran Patrick Watts all preparing to fight hard against the odds.
All of these drivers will be tasked with holding back the superior power of a pair of American monsters. Two-time Le Mans winner Romain Dumas will be at the wheel of a Ford Galaxie, and Aston Martin GT stalwart Darren Turner will be attempting to tame Duncan Pittaway's Plymouth Barracuda.

'Mr Le Mans' Tom Kristensen will make his first appearance of the weekend in the Stirling Moss Memorial Trophy, where he'll share a Ferrari 250 GT SWB amidst a stunning field of early 1960s GT racers. He'll be up against five-time Le Mans winner Emanuele Pirro, who'll be at the wheel of a very special Mercedes-Benz 300 SL 'Gullwing'. Brothers Max and Tom Chilton will be sharing their family's Aston Martin DB4GT, while 2012 World Touring Car Champion Rob Huff will be piloting an E-type.
The likes of Button, Franchitti and Chandhok will all be back out on the Motor Circuit for this one, as we look forward to enjoying one of the most beautiful races of all.
Some of the world's most talented motorcycle riders will line up on the grid of the Barry Sheene Memorial Trophy in 2026, including a host of competitors best known for their exploits on the Isle of Man. Michael Dunlop, a 36-time TT winner, will be astride a Norton International, alongside fellow TT legends John McGuinness and Peter Hickman. Ben Birchall, a 14-time TT sidecar winner will also return to the Revival to race a Norton Manx, while the Isle of Man TT links continue with Davey Todd, Iain Duffus, Ian Hutchinson, Ian Simpson and Connor Cummins.
Three-time World Superbike Champion Troy Bayliss will also be riding a Norton Manx, but he and the rest of the Norton riders will be faced with the largest contingent of Vincent motorcycles we've seen at the Revival for many years, which is bound to deliver quite the spectacle when this two-part spectacle gets underway.

We're going to be treated to something very special when the grid assembles for the Lavant Cup. A collection of exquisite Ferrari and Maserati sportscars from the 1950s will represent the original peak of Italian motorsport as these two great marques from Modena do battle once again.
Each one remarkable and rare, the cars that define a generation of sportscar racing will gather at Goodwood to race against each other for the very first time. Ferrari 250 Testa Rossa will battle Maserati 300S, Ferrari 750 Monza will face Maserati 450S, and Maserati A6GCS will duel against Ferrari 121 Export.
Just the cars themselves will be enough to ensure this race lives long in the memory, but the inclusion of Frank Stippler, at the wheel of a Ferrari 250 MM, will no doubt lead to fireworks out on track.
Talking of fireworks, the Whitsun Trophy will be louder than any display you might be planning on watching on 5th November. Big V8 prototypes that raced primarily in the US in period will unleash 1,000s of horsepower when the flag drops, with the age-long rivalry between McLaren and Lola continued with vigour at Goodwood. Lola T70s will battle McLaren M1As and M1Bs for supremacy, all the while seeing off the challenge of a fleet of Ford GT40s in what is the Revival's fiercest contest. Alex Brundle will be in action here again, looking to defend his crown at the wheel of his own Lola T70 Spyder.

There will of course be plenty of Grand Prix and Formula 1 machinery in action throughout the Revival weekend. The Goodwood Trophy will showcase pioneering years of pre-war motorsport, with ERA types A, B and D lining up against and Alfa Romeo 158 'Alfetta', Maseratis, Talbot-Lagos, Bugattis, Sunbeams and more.
The Richmond & Gordon Trophies will pit the final era of front-engined Formula 1 cars against the rear-engined pioneers that overthrew them. The big Connaughts and legendary Maserati 250Fs will do their best to hold off Cooper T45s, T53 'Lowline's and Lotus 18s in a wonderful recreation of the varioety of 1950s F1.
Then the Glover Trophy will remind us of a true golden era of F1 racing as the 1.5-litre torpedoes of the 1960s once again light up the Goodwood Motor Circuit as they did in period. The Lotus cars that dominated that era will make up the majority of the grid, the Climax-engined 21s, 24s and 25s that Jim Clark drove to so many victories will engage with BRMs, Brabhams and Coopers, not to mention a handful of lesser-known machines from Gilby, BRP, ATS and Lola.

Talking of golden eras, the world of sportscar racing has enjoyed many such periods, but the Revival programme features two races that showcase many of the very best sportscars every built.
The Freddie March Memorial Trophy evokes the great Goodwood 9 Hour races that remain legend to this day. Jaguar C-Types and D-Types will compete against Aston Martin DB3Ss, Austin Healeys, HWMs and many other remarkable cars from a stunningera of 1950s racing. An Alfa Romeo 6C 3000PR 'Disco Volante' will no doubt turn heads, as will the Connaught ASLR, a Frazer Nash Mille Miglia, a Cooper T20, a Jaguar XK120 'Gomm Special' and the iconic Ford Thunderbird 'Battlebird'.
The Sussex Trophy will offer another flavour of '50s magic when the 'long-nose' Jaguar D-Type and Lister 'Knobbly's come out to play. We'll also see Tom Kristensen back out on track in the unique Lister 'Flat Iron', Alex Brundle will be behind the wheel of a D-Type, and former IndyCar racer Simona de Silvestro will race in a Lister 'Costin'.
The Goodwood Revival entry list is as always subject to change, but we're already convinced this is going to be a spectacular weekend of historic motorsport.
