The third day pf Goodwood SpeedWeek starts early, with the 8.40am Richmond and Gordon Trophy for 1954-’60 grand prix cars, beginning a day of non-stop racing and demonstration runs.
The second part of the St Mary’s Trophy returns, hopefully in the same vein as yesterday with close-quarters racing in skitterish ’60 saloon cars. There’s the final of the Shootout, which yesterday saw a lap of less than 70 seconds, plus the promise of a race between a Formula E car, electric motorcycle and drone.
