The Goodwood Festival of Speed and Revival will be streamed live over the internet following a successful trial at this year’s event.
The new format will include an array of expert opinion with Chris Harris leading the line; Chris is a well known YouTube presenter and motoring blogger. He will take on roles such as reviewing cars and commenting on the event.
It is thought that the 2014 footage was seen by motoring enthusiasts across 150 different nations. The Festival is now looking to boost that reach and share their achievements with the world.
The Goodwood Festival of Speed is held in late June or early July; the event is scheduled to avoid clashing with the F1 season, enabling fans to see F1 machines as well as cars and motorbikes from motor racing history. It currently attracts crowds of around 100,000 on each of the three days it is now held; a record crowd of 158,000 attended in 2003.
“There’s a huge amount of enthusiasm both here in the UK and around the world for what we’re doing in our corner of West Sussex,” said Lord March, founder of the events. “In order to help reach out to that global fanbase we're investing boldly in our on-event broadcasting capability, as well as our other new digital asset, the Goodwood Road & Racing enthusiast website.”
