A year to celebrate Goodwood and Porsche's 75th anniversary
yesterday,I was writing about the Porsches that will be raced at Goodwood and the Porsches that will be on displaySo, today, this year's Mastercard is the sponsorGoodwood Festival of SpeedThere was an announcement that the theme was decided on Porsche ^ ^
Since it's the 75th anniversary of Porsche, I thought that this year's theme would definitely be Porsche, but I'm kind of happy that it was officially decided.
By the way, in the past, Porsche was adopted as a theme (?) The first time was 1998, 25 years ago, the year when Porsche celebrated its 50th anniversary ↓
Next, in 2013, we celebrated the 50th anniversary of the Porsche 911.
The closest is 2018, when we celebrated Porsche's 70th anniversary five years ago.
At the end of the 70th anniversary of Porsche, when Porsche became the theme of Goodwood, there was no corona problem yet, and at the next milestone, the 75th anniversary of Porsche (this year), the corona got much better. It's pretty amazing to be able to hold events again like before.
After all Porsche, "I have".
By the way, I am persistent, but this year is not only the year to celebrate the 75th anniversary of Porsche, but also the 60th anniversary of Porsche 911, which is a memorable year.
It's also the year of Goodwood's 75th anniversary, so I think it will be the best match when both parties are full of feelings of celebration.
The large monument to be displayed in front of the main venue of the Goodwood Festival of Speed will of course be a Porsche, and various other Porsches will be exhibited along the 1.9 km Goodwood Hill.
In addition, a Porsche parade will be held to introduce the history of Porsche's 75th anniversary by Porsche.
Gerry Judah is in charge of the monument using a huge actual car. What it will be like will be revealed in the future, so this is also one of the fun ^ ^
This time, the 2023 Goodwood Festival of Speed has Porsche as its theme, according to the event's founder, The Duke of Richmond:
“This year, Porsche becomes the first manufacturer to feature at the Festival of Speed for the fourth time, highlighting the huge success of this iconic manufacturer as it celebrates Goodwood and Porsche’s 75th anniversary.”
And Krishan Bodhani, CEO of Porsche UK, said:
“Just as some 75 years ago Ferry Porsche dreamed of a sports car and created the 356, 30 years ago the Duke realized his dream of a unique automotive event. The Goodwood Festival of Speed is the perfect place to celebrate our anniversary.”
Is said.
The Goodwood Festival of Speed will take place July 13-16, 2023.
