Goodwood Motor Circuit kicked off its 2026 season in sublime style this past weekend (April 18/19) as the 83rd Members’ Meeting presented by Audrain Motorsport delivered two days of retro thrills.

Marking the start of what promises to be another unmissable year of full-throttle action at the former home of the British Automobile Racing Club, iconic drivers and machinery descended on the world-famous West Sussex grounds for a frenetic feast of nostalgic track action.

Basking in the Spring sunshine, the Members’ Meeting is open to members and fellows of the Goodwood Road Racing Club and is staged to recapture the intimacy and camaraderie of race weekend’s from Goodwood’s heyday.

One of the undoubted highlights of the weekend proved to be the Super Touring Shoot-Out, which pitted a number of iconic tin tops from the 1990s and early 2000s against each other in a one lap showdown.

While the modern era of the British Touring Car Championship starred at Donington Park, former FIA World Touring Car Champion Rob Huff reigned supreme at Goodwood as he claimed the bragging rights in a Triple Eight Engineering Vauxhall Vectra.

The Gordon Spice Trophy – which is for Group 1 saloon cars that are over 2.8-litres – wowed the crowds with a ultra-competitive grid and for the second year in a row, honours went the way of Romain Dumas and Fred Shepherd in their Ford Mustang Boss.

Pre-67 Sports & GT cars, inspired by the Sebring 12 Hours, were the stars of the Phil Hill Cup and it proved to be a captivating; even more so when the eventual winner emerged as 2009 Formula 1 World Champion, Jenson Button.

Edwardian, GN Special and cars in the spirit of Brooklands Pre-1923 were the stars of the show in the S.F. Edge Trophy. The two-part race was largely dominated by Julian Majzub as he claimed a first and second to secure the overall win.

Elsewhere, 1000cc F3 screamers starred in the Derek Bell Cup, which was won by Enrico Spaggiari, while Gary Pearson and his Jaguar XK120 Mistral proved to be a winning combination in the Peter Collins Trophy.

Pre-1963 Jaguar E-Types were celebrated in the Protheroe Cup, and on combined results victory went the way of IndyCar legend Dario Franchitti and Gregor Fisken.

The Varzi Trophy for 1920 and 1930s Grand Prix & Voiturette Cars was won by Patrick Blakeney-Edwards, and Phil Keen triumphed in the Bruce McLaren Trophy.

Two-wheel action was also part of the billing at Goodwood with Hailwood Trophy ft Sheene Trophy for Grand Prix Motorcycles delivering an abundance of thrills. Current British Superbike Championship ace Storm Stacey was victorious on a 1980 Yamaha TZ 350 H.
