I’ve mentioned before about how great it is to be able to get up above the cars at the Goodwood Members Meeting, and at the 74MM this again was a possibility for those of us with the patience to wait for a gap to appear (its a popular spot amongst spectators with good reason).
Having elected to watch the Alan Mann Trophy race from here on the Saturday night, knowing that it was one of only two races over the weekend to feature a driver change, it guaranteed at least one drive through of each car during the hour long race.
This particular car, owned by Daniela Ellerbrock, and driven in the Alan Mann Trophy race by Olivier Ellerbrock and Frank Stippler, took the prize for the fastest race lap of the 74MM, with Frank Stippler clocking an impressive lap time of 1min 21.607sec.
