Four-time F1 champion Sebastian Vettel will return to fosgoodwood this year and is due to drive F1 cars from his own collection up the hill, including Nigel Mansell’s title-winning Williams FW14B. Full story ⬇️
All the cars Vettel drives at the event will be powered by sustainable fuels, following the ‘Race without Trace’ initiative he launched last year at Silverstone“I can’t wait to get behind the wheel of some of my most memorable cars, which will be running on sustainable fuel over the weekend.
“I’m a passionate racer and it’s important to me that we continue to enjoy driving iconic racing cars today, and in the future, but that we do so in a responsible way.”It is estimated that 20% of the cars in action at this year’s Festival of Speed, the 30th edition of the event, will be powered by alternative methods, whether electric, hydrogen or synthetic fuels.
The Duke of Richmond added: “I am enormously excited to welcome Sebastian back to Goodwood this summer. “I know our fans will be delighted to have an opportunity to celebrate his incredible career and to see him in action on the hill. “His attitude towards sourcing alternative fuels absolutely aligns with our plans across the event and the wider Estate to ensure we are shining a light on this important topic and protect motorsport for the next generation.”The manufacturer is recognising the 75th anniversary of the creation of its first car this year – the same milestone the Goodwood circuit is also commemorating – and a special parade of Porsches will take to the hill.
