Goodwood Festival of Speed 2019

The Festival of speed has started with a bang with the like of Ford, Aston Martin and BAC showing off their latest creations. Hometyre Sussex will be on site to assist both the Redbull and Goodwood showcase teams by fitting tyres to the drift and rally cars that will be performing both in the new arena as well as those taking on the hill climb.

Members of the public will be able to watch us whilst we work on replacing the rather hot and worn race tyres. For us, this is a massive privilege and to be involved with RedBull and Goodwood directly makes it even more special.

We have been present in previous years, supporting Mad Mike with his 1200BHP Mazda drift car, but we have always been kept out on the sidelines. This year, we are directly next to the teams which aids in changing the tyre as quickly as possible to get them back in front of the crowds.

During the previous week, we had been working at the FOS site alongside the Redbull team whilst they were making a promotional film for the Festival.
