More than 130 of the world's finest historic racing cars revved up for the 2015 Silver Anniversary Silverstone Classic (24-26 July) at today’s sun-kissed Media Day – as organisers predict the biggest and best event yet.
The Silverstone Classic is one of the undeniable blue riband events on the world racing calendar, and having attracted more than 1,100 entries in each of the last three years, a bumper crop is well and truly on the cards in 2015. What’s more, after a record 94,000 fans poured through the gates in 2014, advance ticket sales suggest the 100,000 barrier will be broken in July.
“Silverstone Classic represents the very best historic racing anywhere on the planet,” said Event Director Nick Wigley. “The breadth of cars the event attracts is simply extraordinary, from Pre-War 1920s and ‘30s machinery through early Grand Prix cars, the glamour era of the ‘50s and ‘60s to 1980s F1 turbocharged beasts, Group C sportscars and Super Touring and GT legends from the ‘90s. It really is a comprehensive spectrum.
