The best snaps of the 2026 Goodwood Revival

Friday at the 2026 Goodwood Revival

The opening day of the Goodwood Revival delivered its signature mix of awe, nostalgia, and impeccable period fashion. Under this year's 'La Dolce Vita' theme, a vibrant swarm of Vespas opened the track — with the Duke of Richmond as its most prominent passenger — to celebrate 80 years of the iconic Italian marque.

What followed was an action-packed schedule featuring 13 qualifying sessions and two competitive races. A major highlight of the afternoon was a poignant tribute to Sir Jack Brabham. A spectacular parade of the three-time Formula 1 World Champion, one of which in his own machinery, took to the circuit, offering a fitting salute to a true motorsport legend.

The historic drama escalated further when a trio of infamous 1966 Le Mans Ford GT40s stormed the track. Sporting their iconic liveries, the American powerhouses took centre stage for an afternoon of heritage racing. In a spectacular twist for racing fans, they were driven by André Lotterer, Benoît Tréluyer, and Marcel Fässler, marking an iconic reunion of the legendary driver trio who famously conquered Le Mans three times together for Audi.

With the paddock buzz and the stage perfectly set, we can’t wait to see what tomorrow brings.
