We know there’s lots to stream this weekend, but if you want to get some good, free racing in over coffee and before racing is on stateside, the annual Goodwood Festival of Speed streams live for free Friday through Sunday. If you’re unfamiliar, this is short hill climb up Lord March’s lengthy estate driveway and not only does it draw out some incredible cars and motorcycles, it also brings out some of the most incredible drivers in the world. On any given stream, you’ll find everything from one of Ken Block’s unmistakable Gymkhana cars to a pre-World War I “car,” where that term is used in the minimalist sense that there are four wheels, an engine, and a driver (and usually one passenger holding on for dear life).
It draws tens of thousands of spectators over the four days (Thursday is kind of a show day with runs up the hill Friday through Sunday) and Goodwood coolly streams the whole event from the estate in Susses, mixing in the racing action with some great interviews from iconic drivers like Sterling Moss and John Surtees. Every year features a theme and this year’s Festival of Speed celebrate BMW’s centennial so if you’re a Bimmer fan, there should be plenty of great historical cars to enjoy.
Thanks Guys for the links.
You’re on your way back to making up for possibly the Worst Live Feed you promoted in the history of the internet.
The ‘coverage’ of the Hot Rod power tour by that suspension manufacturer and their whiny woman ‘host.’ I would be discouraged of doing any business with that mfg too, I don’t care who they were. If they can budget and attend an event like that and travel the country they can at least have a little pride by putting out a reasonably entertaining internet experience to match. Total Fail.
In my personal Opinion, absolutely, positively the worst ‘Live Feed’ ever produced anywhere and I would never attend a Hot Rod event based on that coverage. Insanely Terrible. An embarrassment to the hobby. Is the goal to give the sport/hobby just another Black Eye so people can think we are a bunch of illiterate knuckledragging assholes ? Boobus Americanus.
No Matter how bad the insufferable British accents, the Goodwood event is sure to be a Winner.
and Thanks Again for the links.
