Gallery: Early arrivals set the tone for SpeedWeek | GRR
Goodwood SpeedWeek presented by Mastercard is about to get under way. The event brings the broadest mix of cars we've ever seen at the Motor Circuit, combining modern and historic race cars and road cars, together with rally cars that will take to the Super Special stage. As a taster of what's to come when the event goes live tomorrow, we were there as the cars were being unloaded from their trailers and transporters.
Bright sunshine is lighting up the autumnal colours around the paddock, while a diverse array of machinery is filling the paddock shelters. Whether your preference is for Group B rally cars, screaming F1 cars of the 1990s, modern LMP cars or just about anything else in between, you'll find something to get excited about. Here's just a handful of the cars you'll see in action during SpeedWeek.
