Perfect for any pit-stop or even a quick “splash ‘n’ dash”, every car-loving Dad needs a racing-themed mug.

If the Stirling livery isn’t to your taste, other options include Fangio’s championship winning Ferrari, as well as the racing green of Graham Hill’s BRM.

GT40 socks

Price: £10

It wouldn’t be a Father’s Day gift guide without socks. Le Mans ’66 was released earlier this year, with the Christian Bale flick inspiring many to go retro. The iconic GT40 Gulf car was victorious at Le Mans in ’69 and many associate these colours with the renowned racer.

If the Gulf colours don’t take your fancy, you can choose from other designs inspired by the Subaru Impreza WRX, Audi Quattro, McLaren’s late 1980s design, or Williams FW18. Beautiful inside and out and ideal for Father’s Day, the socks are available in 41-46 UK (7½-11½) US (8-12).
