As we do most years, we attended this yr’s Goodwood Festival of Speed 2026 on Sunday, 12 July. The climate was completely scorching, because it had been for the earlier two to 3 weeks. So there was no inexperienced grass to be seen wherever and other people have been in search of shade the place they might.
The occasion was tremendous busy, the climate was tremendous scorching, and there was masses occurring, as at all times. It can all be slightly overwhelming. Because of this, it’s at all times finest to plan what you wish to do and see. That method you will get that completed first.
Taking my very own recommendation, I headed for my favorite areas first, which have been the Cartier Style et Luxe. We did a video stroll round you can see beneath and on our YouTube channel. We additionally put collectively our top 10 favourite cars from the Cartier Style et Luxe. It’s at all times exhausting to decide on simply 10 vehicles when all 20-plus vehicles on show are nice, uncommon and iconic. However, we managed to whittle them right down to our 10 favourites. Here are a couple of footage from the Cartier Style et Luxe beneath. There is far more element about every particular person automobile in our publish.
Cartier Style et Luxe vehicles
Vintage racing and rally vehicles
We then headed over to the classic racing vehicles from the Nineteen Thirties, the place there have been additionally some rally vehicles that includes a couple of of my favourites. Pictures are beneath.
Supercars
Next, we headed over to the supercar paddock, which is at all times extremely busy. It was exhausting to get images with out folks being in the method, however we did our greatest.
I assumed the Pagani Huayra Codalunga Speedster (beneath) was fairly superb, as you’d anticipate. However, it additionally made me realise that, as much as I like a supercar or hypercar, I simply don’t assume they’re very sensible in as we speak’s world. They’re not an excellent use of my cash. What do you assume?
The Ferrari Stand
Ferrari had 4 vehicles on show from their present line up of vehicles on sale now.
I then spent an hour or two simply meandering and strolling round the present, taking a look at all the retailers and shopping for a couple of bits.
Denza Z supercar
I additionally checked out some new vehicles, together with the Denza Z supercar (beneath) and the huge present centre that BYD had. They definitely made a press release with what was most likely the greatest stand at the present.
Audi Nuvolari
The Audi Nuvolari (beneath) is Audi’s strongest and quickest manufacturing automobile ever— a limited-edition (499 can be made). A1,001 PS hybrid hypercar serving as the non secular successor to the R8. Priced over $700,000 (£500,000), it makes use of a 4.0L twin-turbo V8 and three electrical motors to hit 100 km/h in 2.6 seconds. I believe it appears to be like cool, however the price ticket, no thanks.

I’d usually keep for the complete present, and on Sunday I’d normally stay till the last runs up the hill, that are the quickest runs of the weekend. However, provided that I used to be barely hungover from the night earlier than, after England fortunately beat Norway in the World Cup quarter-final, and I’d had little or no sleep, I used to be additionally getting cooked by the solar. So, I made a decision to go away slightly sooner than regular.
Like everybody who attends the Goodwood Festival of Speed, I discover it’s fairly related yearly. It’s an awesome time out for certain, nonetheless, as I become old although, I’m discovering the quantity of folks in attendance, journey to go away the venue, a bit overwhelming, and the costs for meals and admission are very excessive.
