The Goodwood Festival of Speed can claim to be the world’s biggest celebration of motor-sport and car culture. It’s the only occasion when the greatest competition cars and star drivers from all eras gather — and with The Sunday Times you could win the chance to be part of the action.

The festival showcases everything from 19th-century steam carriages to classic rally cars, racing motorcycles, 3,000bhp dragsters and current Formula 1 cars. It also attracts motor-sport legends. This year, you can expect to see Moss, Surtees, Hill and Bell burning rubber alongside today’s hottest newcomers — Lewis Hamilton, Jenson Button, Sebastian Bourdais and Petter Solberg.

The lucky winner will get admission to the festival on Sunday, July 13, take to the track as a passenger in the thrilling Sunday Times Supercar Run, and receive VIP hospitality in the Moss Pavilion, which has balcony views of the Startline. Plus, the winner will take home a copy of the book Goodwood Festival of Speed — A Celebration of Motor Sport, signed by the Earl of March.
