Six Formula 1 teams are set to appear at the Goodwood Festival of Speed this summer. The 2019 festival is set to start on the 4th of July and will run until the 7th. It is the 27th year that the festival will be running and there is always a strong Formula 1 presence at the event. Goodwood has not yet revealed which Formula 1 teams will be attending. 

Goodwood celebrates all things that are great about cars and speed with many different types of cars on show. 

There has always been a strong Formula 1 attendance at the event and in previous years with one example being Martin Brundle setting the record for the hill climb in 1994 with the then McLaren MP4-9 Peugeot.

Formula 1 driver Nick Heidfeld also set the record with 41.9 seconds in a McLaren MP4-13 Mercedes. Heidfeld's time could be broken if one of the teams present opted to tune their car to perform.

Tickets for the Festival, which will be held from 4 to 7 July, can be purchased on the Goodwood website.
