A highlight of the circuit's ‘Century of Power’ celebrations, the Masters Racing Legends series recreates the classic sound of ‘60s to ‘80s F1 cars, as they compete for victory once again.
More F1 thrills will come courtesy of the Masters Demo Legends for more modern cars, whilst two very special Williams F1 cars will also be on static display - CLICK HERE for details.
Further thunderous single-seater action will include 60s F1 cars from the Historic Grand Prix Cars Association (HGPCA) plus the F2 Classic Interseries and F3 Classic Interseries.
A grand offering of Masters Historic Racing series will feature too, including the Masters Endurance Legends and Masters Gentleman Drivers, with Masters Pre-66 Touring Cars rounding out the schedule.
