Historic F1 Racers Gear Up For Hscc Historic Festival classicrallies.com

Brands Hatch will reverberate to the sounds of historic Formula One cars at the Autoglym HSCC Historic Festival on June 28th and 29th. Headlining the event, and bringing the memories flooding back to this great circuit, is the FIA Historic Formula One Championship, which will see F1 cars from 1966 to 1985 take to the track.

The Autoglym Festival is also the highpoint of the year’s celebration of 50 years of Formula Junior, with separate races for each of the three eras of the formula. Gathered together will be the biggest ever entry of FJ cars together with a party for ‘anciens pilotes’ from the 1950s and ’60s.

As well as offering highly entertaining historic racing and a good dose of nostalgia, the Autoglym HSCC Historic Festival provides fun for all the family – including free entertainment for children. Even if classic racing isn’t their thing, the youngsters will find more than enough to keep themselves amused in the Kids’ Super Inflatable Fun City, featuring the largest fun inflatable in Europe.
