OTD in 1948, Goodwood opened its doors for the first time as a Motor Circuit and played host to eight races - the most prestigious of which was aptly named the Goodwood Trophy. A grid of nine cars lined up for the five lap race and while fighting was fierce, it was ultimately the great Reg Parnell that took victory in his #Maserati 4CLT/48. 77 years on, the Goodwood Trophy remains one of the beloved events of the #GoodwoodRevival and is central to reliving the glory days of our historic circuit

It may not be the winningest car in #F1's elaborate history, but the #Renault RS10 is nonetheless one of the most important. Built in 1979, this car became the first turbocharged car in World Championship history to win a grand prix, as it was piloted to victory by Jean-Pierre Jabouille at the Dijon-Presnois circuit in France. Hearing that 1.5-litre twin-turbo V6 soar up the #FOS Hill gives us goosebumps every time | Goodwood Festival of Speed
