Every competitor will be required to use fuel containing at least 70% advanced sustainable components, marking another milestone in environmentally conscious motorsport.

The race lineup promises to be as thrilling as ever, with fan-favorite events alongside the introduction of the Win Percy Trophy, all set against the backdrop of Goodwood’s legendary circuit. Here’s a breakdown of the races you can expect:
