Friday Photo – 2014 Goodwood Festival of Speed

EngageSportMode wasn’t at this year’s Goodwood Festival of Speed, instead spending last weekend at Croft Circuit for the British Touring Car Championship. But that doesn’t mean we can’t bring you photo highlights from Goodwood. We promise there’s no flamboyant trousers or Red Arrows content contained within.

Drawing in over 200,000 spectators across the four days, this year’s Festival of Speed turned out to be a record breaker. Whether it was Jann Mardenborough setting a winning supercar time in a Nissan GT-R, Sir Chris Hoy making a complete mess of a Nissan GT-R or Sebastien Loeb demonstrating he hasn’t lost any talent on the rally stage, there was action everywhere. As anyone who has been to Goodwood will attest, it’s impossible to see and cover everything. But with the help of the great people at Newspress, we’ve brought you the photo highlights we’ve seen from the weekend. Here’s some of the old and new iconic racers which took to the hill:

Along with race car action, the Moving Motor Show held on Thursday also pulled in a big crowd. With the absence of a genuine UK motor show currently, Goodwood is probably the closest we get to the massive events like those in Geneva, Detroit or Paris:

Goodwood continues to grow –  we can only imagine how big next year’s show will be. Perhaps EngageSportMode will be there!
