Due to my inability to be at two places at once (I will work on that) I was not able to photograph every driver, but the following are a selection of those that I did manage to catch. And something we note, happily, every year, in most cases, the drivers are smiling, joking, relaxed and in a great mood. Such is the magic that is the Goodwood Festival of Speed.

One of the privileges granted to accredited and fully insured (see last week’s article) photographers at the Festival of Speed is to be able to access the assembly areas in which the entrants in each group/class are gathered before being sent down to the hill start line. It is in the assembly area that I get my best chance of pointing my camera at some famous drivers and riders old and new.

A bit of the drivers, a focus on the Moss celebration, we can’t forget the Minis and the Beatles and Carnaby street now can we, and a goodbye kiss for D-Day.

Jonathan’s track shots at the Goodwood Members’ Meeting (see story) were so good we simply had to enlarge the cockpit area of the photos and let our readers see vintage race drivers in action. [Read more…] about In the Driver’s Seat at Goodwood

There are thousands of scenes to photograph at the Revival and we apologize for publishing so many seemingly endless images in this article. However, the Goodwood Revival comes only once a year and while in some respects is the same (the venue, the races, many of the cars) every year there will be something decidedly different which will make me go ‘Wow!’
When you’re smilin’, the whole world smiles with you…
No need for an introduction. Just scroll down to view this amazing album of great drivers just plain enjoying themselves at Goodwood. Well, except for Kimi and Loeb, who never seem to smile. This is Jonathan Sharp at his best. [Ed.]
