Southport Classic and Speed 20242 builds on the great success of 2023 and will once again celebrate our motoring and motorsport heritage. NB rumour has it that there may be a special celebration dinner on the Saturday - tbc. We are delighted to celebrate the historic Grand Prix's that took place at our motor racing circuit at Aintree, which remains the UK's only purpose-built Grand Prix Track. This year marks the 65th anniversary of one of the most important races ever to take place in this country, the 1957 Grand Prix de Europe held in July. This marked a groundbreaking milestone in our motor racing providence and history when Stirling Moss and Tony Brooks became the first British Drivers, driving a British car, the Vanwall, to win the British Grand Prix. The Vanwall featured a Colin Chapman designed chassis with the aerodynamic body designed by Frank Costin (brother of Cosworth founder, Mike). This was the turning point in the success of British Formula 1 racing teams with Vanwall going on to set another precedent the following year by becoming the first British Team to win the Formula 1 Constructors World Championship. It is fair to say, since then, we have never looked back.
