This may come as a shock to some, but the Goodwood estate which is the location for the annual Goodwood Festival of Speed is actually owned by Charles Gordon-Lennox, the Earl of March and Kinrara with the famous hillclimb actually serving as his everyday driveway.
Lord March as he’s better known, has remained at the forefront of British motorsport for many years and in early 2007, he was even regarded as one of the 50 most influential figures for the classic car scene according to Octane Magazine.

And with the Goodwood Festival of Speed 2013 edging closer, Lord March himself recently tackled the Goodwood hillclimb in a brand new 2012 Aston Martin Vanquish!
