Perfect for #FerrariFriday - the beautiful 250 GT SWB in which Stirling Moss won the 1960 #Goodwood TT and its owner Ross Brawn. Cars from Stirling's career were parked outside @wabbey for this week's memorial service for the legendary racer @GoodwoodRRC @goodwoodrevival

Earlier today, The Duke of Kent and Prince Michael of Kent joined figures from the world of motor sport at the Abbey for a Service of Thanksgiving for Sir Stirling Moss.
You can find out more about Sir Stirling's remarkable career and see pictures from the service at: westminster-abbey.org/abbey-โฆ

So cool that the shed from which #Tyrrell won the world championship has been relocated to @GoodwoodMC. Now we need Sir Jackie Stewart to drive out of the shed and on to the track at #81MM. Please #Goodwood, make it happen! #F1 @TheBishF1 @HillF1 @MBrundleF1 @karunchandhok

The Surrey shed that was Tyrrell's first F1 factory is on the move โ saved from demolition thanks to Goodwood #F1

Ahead of the traditional drivers' cricket match to kick off another @goodwoodrevival, a look back to 1959 when an @OfficialBARCHQ team played @goodwoodcricket and some big names took part. I wonder what @CarrollShelby made of it all?

Preparations complete and the ground looking good for the traditional @goodwoodrevival cricket match @goodwoodcricket where drivers swop overalls for whites, then have a briefing and marquee tea as a Spitfire flies overhead.
