What a day. Again I was the privileged recipient of a ticket for entry to a large Historic Motorsport event - this time The Classic at Silverstone.
I have attended The Classic once before, a few years ago, and know it is an amazing event. There are many car clubs and manufacturers with cars on display, creating an absolutely mouthwatering display to gawp at and photograph.
Silverstone even staged a world first, they managed to have a special display that featured all 7 of the cars that Lewis Hamilton has won World Championship titles in. All 7 have never been all on display at the same time in one place, so that was one awesome feature to start the day.
Putting all that aside though, this event is mainly about the actual racing - a quite incredible array of cars took to the track in a wide variety of categories, producing some stunning racing and providing a truly wonderful spectacle.
