Nick Mason is one of the many drivers who took part in the 2013 Goodwood Festival Of Speed, which was on July 11th - 14th. The event is a must-attend annual celebration of motor racing held in Sussex on an Earl's estate. Gathering cars (and bikes), drivers, and enthusiasts from all over the world, the event celebrates motor racing from the very early days,
through to the very latest F1 cars. It is heldin the grounds of Lord March's estate, near Chichester, Sussex, in the south of England, and has static displays, demonstration runs, and timed runs, up the hill past Goodwood House. It's a wonderful event, and words do not pay it justice!
Nick is a regular each year, having driven a range of classic cars from his and others collections. At this year's event he took the wheel of an Auto Union Type C and his own Ferrari 250 GTO.
During the event, Nick spoke to the Goodwood media team, telling them of his passion for motor sport, why he loves the Festival of Speed and how the event has changed since his first visit 20 years ago:
