LIVESTREAM: Goodwood Revival - 9th & 10th September

[Paul Jeffrey]

This weekend will see the best of the best in historic racing take to glorious Goodwood, live and action packed all weekend!

The Goodwood Motor Racing Circuit in England is truly one of the best places in the world to watch historic cars pushed to the very limits, and this weekend the very best from the world of historic racing will take to the 3.8 mile circuit in Chichester for a weekend long festival celebrating the history of motorsport around the world.

Featuring priceless pieces of motorsport history pitched in highly competitive racing situations, often piloted by period drivers and some of the stars of motorsport past and present, the Goodwood Revival never fails to produce incredible action both on the track and across the many trackside displays and presentations.

Thankfully the whole weekend is receiving professionally broadcast livestream treatment, of which you can catch up and watch live below.

Old cars, historic circuit untouched by the health and safety police, top drivers and door to door racing.. sounds like fun? You betcha!

Goodwood Revival

Live stream will be broadcast over the weekend and repeated overnight.

This is coverage of the Goodwood Revival meeting 2017 and is delayed from Saturday 9th September. You’ll see touring cars, Ferrari 250s and Astons awesome ’50s saloon car action in the brilliant St Mary’s Trophy and the mighty F1 cars of the Richmond Trophy. There’s even more than 125 Fiat 500s ready to celebrate the 60th anniversary of the tiny Italian three-seater and some awesome cars run by the legendary Ecurie Ecosse.

The romance and glamour of motor racing as it used to be. The Revival is the only historic race meeting to be staged entirely in period dress and is a return to the halcyon days of Goodwood as the spiritual home of British motor racing.

It’s an unabashed celebration of flat-out wheel-to-wheel racing, around the sweeps and curves of this classic circuit, which remains unchanged since its heyday. The inaugural Revival opened on 18 September 1998, when the Earl of March drove around the circuit in the Bristol 400 in which his grandfather, the 9th Duke of Richmond, opened the track 50 years before. It’s now the world’s most celebrated historic motor racing event, with race fans coming from all over the country to soak up the unique atmosphere in period costume.

The Settrington Cup is great, my mates kid won it a few years back, loved the interview pre-race today:
Commentator: "Where do you think you'll finish?"
Kid: "Down there" <points to the end of the track>

Time machine... Plz... Anyone?... I'm so in wrong era... But yeah, absolute beautiful car's, racing and all related. Good moment in St. Mary's Trophy. Just suddendly middle of the race zooming on mainstraight to a carburator that lay's there middle of the straight, but no-one didn't seem to have any problem's xD. I think someone's spare-part fell off from the trunk... lol. You dont see that these day's.

Would have been nice to see that thing to go thru the grid (literally) But fat-lady's singing cutted very short... But great race on top. So many many many great race's during whole weekend. Have been watching racing whole year but this make's me smile and give thrill's. Don't get it anywhere else but TT and Drag-Racing anymore from running series. Would be absolute treat to visit this event someday...

 

[MarcG]

Watching these Cobras and E-Types slide around is absolutely fantastic

 

[Stig Bidstrup]

I am a bit surprised that no modern sim have yet recreated this track, the layout have not changed since the 60s, maybe they are to expensive don't know....

Right now it is boiling in my blender software @Stig Bidstrup

Goodwood Revival, brilliant as always.

Bit of an off-topic, and one brought in inumerous times through the years but, really, to not make a propper sim-racing game based on something like the Goodwood Revival is a missed opportunity, IMHO.

The only historical-racing based sim-racing games are, so far, counted by the fingers of one hand, with probably only two worth mentioning (GPL and GTL). There is none historical racing game produced in well over a decade now (obviously not counting mods such as GTLW's P&G or V-LM's GTPC) and I trully believe that, niche or not, there would be enough interest to justify the effort on a new historical racing based game made with the latest and best technology.

It should be far easier to do produce something based on Goodwood Revival (being much smaller in scope) than something like the announced GTL2 (which seems to now be on hiatus?).

Anyways, just something that I can't avoid thinking and venting every year when watching this event.

No chance it would sell well enough to justify investment+all licenses cost, id rather see some part of it as a dlc to existing sim

 

[mantasisg]

What about a mod ? :/

 

[DucFreak]

To pick such a wide theme in racing and only produce it as a DLC for an existing racing game (which was never made with it in mind) is to only scratch the surface when it comes to depth and all around accuracy. Due to time/monetary costs, the scope would be awfully decreased, in quantity and quality.
Meaning, as DLC, it would be really, really reduced - which then leads to the same issue all over again.
Historical-racing is still varied and big enough today to warrant its own game title out of its many classes and events, IMHO.

 

[FeltHat]

Yes, but one track is the deal breaker here. Id love to see it as series of dlcs, lets say for raceroom, they bring us track, then one series after another. This way u can use them on different tracks etc, lower costs

 

[Stig Bidstrup]

Must be one of the fastest to make for some Pro track makers , its grass all round the track , and some grand stands, its bumpy at places ( important to get that in ) but compared to making Old Spa ---well

 

[mantasisg]

You are reducing it.

"just something that I can't avoid thinking and venting every year when watching this event"

DucFreak: I've daydreamed of a new game: "Be Lord March 2018".

That way, you have a Festival of Speed/Hillclimb and a Revival to plan, an estate to manage, and when you're not organizing race meets you can move vintage wine bottles around, or commission yourself a new E-Type, or whatever Ladies and Lords do!

 

[mantasisg]

I have installed "Be Yourself 1991" sim, and always playing
