Historic Formula 1 to headline Silverstone's 75th anniversary

15-Feb-23 /MotorSport/

Silverstone’s forthcoming Festival event will celebrate the circuit’s 75th anniversary with a packed racing programme of classic and historic machinery, with front-engined Formula 1 cars getting a prime slot. The Silverstone Festival (formerly known as The Classic) will take place on August 25-27 and will feature a whopping 14 different categories taking to the track, with the new 75th Anniversary Grand Prix Trophy race promising to be a standout addition.
In partnership with the Historic Grand Prix Cars Association (HGPCA), Silverstone is working to put together a field of 30 front-engined, and 30 rear-engined F1 cars, which will compete together as a 60-car grid across two 20-minute sprint events. However, a third race will run exclusively for front-engined cars, of the type that were raced at Silverstone during its formative years in the late 1940s, such as Aston Martins, Ferraris, Maseratis and Scarabs. This race will be run for the 75th Anniversary Grand Prix Trophy.
