This year’s Goodwood Revival will honour the late, great Jim Clark.
2025 is the 60th anniversary of some of his greatest achievements, which the 12-14 September event will mark with an array of Clark’s cars, plus a gathering of family, friends and on-track rivals.
In 1965, Clark was crowned the Formula One drivers’ champion for the second time, in the process winning six of that season’s 10 Grands Prix in his Lotus Climax.
He also became the first driver to take victory at the Indianapolis 500 in a rear-engined racing car, and he was the first to do so at an average speed of more than 150mph.
To this day, Clark is still the only person who has ever won the F1 championship and Indy 500 in the same year.

And there’s more.
On 19 April 1965, which that year was Easter Monday, Clark took the chequered flag at the last F1 race held at Goodwood (pictured at the top of this page).
