The 2024 Goodwood Revival is fast approaching, and now we can share with you the timetable for the weekend. With three days absolutely packed with the world’s greatest historic motorsport, running exclusively on sustainable fuels, this year’s event is bound to be as dramatic as ever.
We’re incredibly excited to usher in a new sustainable era of historic motorsport that will help to secure the future of these cars and the Revival itself. There is little else more evocative than seeing the Goodwood Motor Circuit return to its original glory, with cars that raced here in period returning to reignite those memories and making them accessible for generations to come.
Every single car set to compete at this year’s Revival is scheduled to be in action on Friday. The traditional Track Opening Parade returns to open proceedings on the Motor Circuit each morning at the Revival. A parade of beach buggies including the iconic Meyers Manx, will take to the track at 09:00 to signal the beginning of motorsport action at the 2024 Revival.
With no time to waste, the cars of the Sussex Trophy will fire up and leave the Assembly Area at 09:30 for the first Official Practice session of the day. The first two-wheeled action follows at 10:20 as the bikes of the Barry Sheene Memorial Trophy get their first outing of the weekend.
Next, it’s the early Grand Prix and Voiturette cars of the Goodwood Trophy at 11:05, then the production-based sports and GT cars of the Fordwater Trophy will emerge at 12:05 before the first practice session for the St. Mary’s Trophy presented by Motul at 12:35.
The tiny engines of the Madgwick Trophy will buzz for the first time at 13:10, before the monsters of the Whitsun Trophy presented by Sky roar at 13:40. The stunning GT cars of the Stirling Moss Memorial Trophy will grace the Motor Circuit at 14:10, with Official Practice for the diminutive 500cc Formula 3 racers of the Earl of March Trophy following at 14:50.
Official Practice for the Richmond & Gordon Trophies begins at 15:45 before the Cobras and E-types of the RAC TT Celebration are unleashed on the Motor Circuit for the first time at 16:15. The ‘60s F1 racers of the Glover Trophy follow at 16:50 before the Freddie March Memorial Trophy at 17:20 and a second outing for the St. Mary’s Trophy at 17:50.
As the sun begins to set on Friday evening, the Sussex Trophy cars return to the track for the first racing action of the weekend at 18:30, taking part in a showpiece one-hour, two-driver race to bring day one of the 2024 Revival to a close.
The Meyers Manx Track Parade will once again open the show on Saturday morning at 09:00, with the day’s racing action getting underway at 09:35 with the Goodwood Trophy. A second Official Practice session for the RAC TT Celebration kicks off at 10:10 before the bikes return at 11:05 for Part 1 of the Barry Sheene Memorial Trophy.
Then we have the Settrington Cup for the first time at 11:45, as the kids climb into the cockpits of their Austin J40s for their first race of the weekend. Race three of the day is the Fordwater Trophy at 12:30 before we once again commemorate John Surtees with a parade at 13:50.
Part 1 of the St. Mary’s Trophy begins at 14:30, and then the afternoon continues apace with the Madgwick Cup at 15:25, the Jaguar XK parade at 16:10, the Whitsun Trophy at 16:40 and the Stirling Moss Memorial Trophy closing the days’ track action at 17:35.
After the third and final Track Opening Parade at 09:00, the Earl of March Trophy gets the racing started at 09:35, followed by the Richmond & Gordon Trophies at 10:30. The second part of the entertaining Settrington Cup gets underway at 11:20 before the final running of the Jaguar XK parade at 11:50.
Part 2 of the Barry Sheene Memorial Trophy rounds up the weekend’s two-wheeled saga at 12:25 before a very special moment at 13:30 as Goodwood commemorates the 80th anniversary of D-Day with a stunning parade of historic military vehicles.
Following that, it’s a return to the racing as the flag drops for the most prestigious race of the weekend, the RAC TT Celebration, at 14:30. Into the afternoon, the Glover Trophy gets underway at 15:55 before we celebrate John Surtees one more time at 16:40.
The weekend is brought to a close on Sunday evening with Part 2 of the St. Mary’s Trophy at 17:10, and the final race of the 2024 Revival, the Freddie March Memorial Trophy, at 18:00.
