@Paul: Indeed, the marshals work very hard at all motorsporting events – they’re the glue that holds everything together. I got a few photos of them in 2007 (think I published one or two), but I agree, without them there would be no motor sport.

Hi Claire, tickets can be expensive but I can only tell you what I paid earlier in the year. The ticket information isn't on the official website at the moment and I cannot remember the prices of the single-day tickets. But for all three days plus reserved grandstand seats on two of the days and a free-for-all on the Friday (it's always this way on Friday), it came out as £350 for two people (therefore I presume £175 each). Hope that helps a little, but keep your eye on the Goodwood website later in the year; they'll post ticket prices when they announce the dates for the 2009 festival.

Hi, just wondering if you could give me an idea of ticket prices for the Festival of Speed, because I would love to go next year, but have heard the tickets are quite expensive. Thanx

Must be one of the greatest motor events in the world. Such a wide range of cars on show, also nice to see them in action. Unique event. Hope I can visit it next year.

Goodwood is on my list of things to do before I die. It’s a long way from Melbourne but dammit, it has to be done!

still covered in all the crap from Le Mans?

Yep, a few of the Le Mans racers were still sporting their wounds, scars and face-paint from Circuit de la Sarthe.

That Artega is gorgeous.

Great range of shots, that Aston looked mean (still covered in all the crap from Le Mans?) and yeah, I’m with you Craig, how much fun would an Atom be?

Love the Wacky Races cars!!

Also think the Atom is still one of the most fun looking cars I’ve ever seen, must be a hoot to drive!

What is the white car after the Atom? Looks quite nice too – and a bit more practical…
