Macari/Kristensen winners Kinrara Trophy of the
with a super-beautiful 1961 Ferrari 250 GT SWB/C
weekend. Saturday’s wet conditions challenged drivers, creating a wet and greasy track,
with sensational sideways racing as the classic cars skimmed through the standing water. On the Sunday, clear skies allowed the
150,000-strong crowd of young and old
spectators, united by their love of the automobile, to soak up both the sunshine and the
unique atmosphere of this romantic time capsule in the English countryside. The Revival is
the only historic race meeting to be staged
entirely in full vintage regalia; authenticity and
attention to detail is paramount, with what you
are wearing considered just as important as
what you are watching! The classic beauty
and style of motor racing throughout the ages,
so accurately depicted at Goodwood Revival,
underscores Rolex’s partnership with the event
and furthermore is reflected in the brand’s
watchmaking and iconic chronographs.
Fittingly, Rolex Testimonee and three-time
Formula One World Champion, Sir Jackie
Stewart, also attended this year’s Revival to
remember both his contemporary Sir Jack
Brabham, and F1’s 1966 ‘Return to Power’.
He explained just what sets the Revival apart:
“Goodwood Revival is very special. I have
been attending for many years with Rolex –
the brand always partners the best events,
whatever it may be, and they always do it
in such style. Goodwood, just like Rolex, has
a unique and fantastic product - the best collection of cars in the world with some brilliant
racing. This makes for the perfect and most
natural partnership”.
