Video: 2026 Brooklands Trophy full race | Goodwood Revival

A deafening roar erupted across the Motor Circuit when these enormous engines fired up, an all-Alfa Romeo 8C 2300 Monza front row flanked by the nimble Frazer Nash TT Replica of Robert Beebee. The battle of the Alfas began the moment the flag dropped, with both Patrick Blakeney-Edwards and Roderick Jack refusing to yield an inch of tarmac into the opening corner.

But while the leaders duelled, there was immediate heartbreak back in the pack when the unique Frazer Nash Saloon ‘Owlett’, driven by James Blakeney-Edwards, was forced into a premature retirement at the end of lap one.

Up front, the two Alfas continued to trade the lead, the gap never stretched beyond two seconds all while Beebee lurked in their shadow. The leading trio quickly left the rest of the field in their dust, opening up a 15-second chasm back to fourth place and reaching backmarkers with 15 minutes still on the clock.

After biding his time and letting the Alfas exhaust each other, Beebee made his move, sweeping past both Italian machines to snatch the lead. But the war was far from over, and Blakeney-Edwards retaliated into the high-speed sweeps of Fordwater and St. Mary’s and put his Alfa back in front.

With just five minutes remaining, heavy traffic turned the circuit into a tactical minefield. The front three were forced to furiously weave through a sea of lapped cars, separated by a mere 0.5 seconds — a single mistake now could cost everything.

The final lap delivered one of the narrowest margins of the weekend. As the two Alfas went door-to-door in a spectacular slide-ways battle for the win, Beebee’s Frazer Nash pushed a fraction too hard and ran wide. Ultimately, after a racing masterclass between the two Italian cars, it was Blakeney-Edwards who came out on top to claim a magnificent victory in the 2026 Brooklands Trophy.
