[Gallery] F1 legends on the Goodwood Hill | GRR
The Festival of Speed presented by Mastercard is always a hub of top-tier F1 content from past and present, and this year was no different. From Graham Hill’s first championship winner from the 1960s to his son Damon’s Championship winner from the late 1990s to Daniel Ricciardo’s Monza-winning McLaren from last year, F1’s history is represented end to end at the Festival.
F1 action on the Hill itself had championship winners aplenty: Senna’s V10 McLaren, Nigel Mansell driving his own Williams FW14B, the singing Ferrari V12s of the late 1980s, which Nigel also had a go in to bring back those Scuderia-flavoured memories. In celebration of BMW Motorsport’s towering achievements, we had Pedro Pique in his father’s championship-winning Brabham-BMW BT52, while Ferrari’s 75th Anniversary celebratory parade was punctuated by the fabulous screaming V8s of the Ferrari F60 and F2008.
Whatever your era of preference in F1, we had something for you in the Grand Prix Greats batch. It included the early years in the ’50s, the mid-engined move, the return to power, the aero revolution and the ground-effect era, the turbo monsters of the late 1970s to the mid-’80s, to heroes of the ’90s and screamers of the 2000s. We even had the Mercedes W10 marmalisng its inters bashing the 1.6-litre hybrid against its limiter. These are scenes you won’t see anywhere else.
