John Surtees, the only person to win Grand Prix World Championships on four wheels and two, will be honoured at this year’s Goodwood Revival, from 6-8 September.
A selection of vehicles from Surtees’ career, including Formula One racers, Can-Am cars and 500cc ’bikes, will come together at the West Sussex circuit.
Surtees, who died on 10 March 2017, would’ve celebrated his 90th birthday on 11 February 2024.

It’s 60 years since John Surtees won the F1 World Championship in a Ferrari
What’s more, 2024 also marks 60 years since Surtees clinched his sole F1 World Championship – the Ferrari driver beat BRM’s Graham Hill by one point.
Surtees’ other World Championship victories came on ’bikes: he won seven titles between 1956 and 1960, when he raced in both the 350cc and the 500cc classes.
He was a multiple winner at the Isle of Man TT, too.
