This is the schedule for Goodwood Speedweek

It may be virtual, but it's set to be exciting


AS WITH ALMOST everything scheduled to take place this year, Goodwood was forced to cancel its main events in 2020 — the Festival of Speed and the Goodwood Revival — due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic.

However, it is rolling the best elements of both events into an online experience, the Goodwood Speedweek, due to take place from tomorrow (Friday). There’ll be no crowds, for obvious reasons, but Goodwood is instead taking the whole thing online, with all the races and entertainment set to be streamed over its website (on two separate streams), as well as on ITV.

Even though you’ll only be able to watch cars — from classic Ferrari 250 GTs to Jaguar Formula E single seater racing cars — power round the famous track on a screen, the lineup for the weekend is looking like a very exciting one. The Duke of Richmond, owner of the Goodwood Estate, said: “Ironically, because we have to stage the event behind closed doors, we are able to create a spectacle that we would normally never dream of doing.”
