2025 Goodwood Revival timetable

Friday on track at the 2025 Goodwood Revival

We mentioned the Track Opening Parade, which will see a fleet of original VW Type 2 Campers get all three days of the Revival off to a colourful and entertaining start at 09:00 sharp, encompassing everything we love about this brilliant event.

The historic motorsport will get underway once the VWs have left the track, and the opening session of the day will see the 1950s sportscars of the Freddie March Memorial Trophy head out for the first time for their Official Practice session at 09:30.

Then it’ll be the first two-wheeled action of the weekend when the bikes of Barry Sheene Memorial Trophy complete their first session at 10:20. The pre-war Grand Prix and Voiturette cars of the Goodwood Trophy will be out next, with Official Practice for a race that reimagines the kind of competition that would have headlined early race meetings at the Motor Circuit in 1948 at 11:05.

The first moment for the Revival to celebrate Jim Clark will arrive at 11:40, which will see a number of his legendary machines, from humble touring cars to World Championship-winning Lotus 25s, complete two laps of the Motor Circuit in honour of the world's greatest racing driver.

Friday afternoon will begin with the sub-3.0-litre sportscars of the Madgwick Cup at 12:05 before the VIP drivers of the St. Mary’s Trophy presented by Motul make the most of their 20-minute chance to get a grip on their ‘50s tin tops at 12:35. That’s followed by a field of Ford Mustangs, Lotus Elan 26Rs and Alfa Romeo TZ1s as they head out for Official Practice in the Fordwater Trophy at 12:35.

The fastest cars of the weekend will be unleashed for Whitsun Trophy Practice at 13:40. Then, from brute force to poise and beauty, the closed-cockpit GTs of the Stirling Moss Memorial Trophy get their first action at 14:10, followed by the Formula Juniors of the Chichester Cup at 14:50.

We’ll all slow down for a deep breath at 15:25 to take in the delights of the Alfa Romeo Celebration, as many of the marque’s most famous and successful racing cars from 1925-1975 head out for a stunning parade, before the beautiful ‘50s World Championship sportscars of the Sussex Trophy get their first taste of action at 15:45.

Things will get serious for just a moment shortly afterwards, when the big guns come out for the RAC TT Celebration’s first Official Practice session of the weekend at 16:15, before the first F1 action of the weekend gets underway with Official Practice for the Glover Trophy at 16:50, followed by the Richmond & Gordon Trophies at 17:20.

Friday evening will begin with the second part of St. Mary’s Trophy Practice at 17:50, before the the sun begins to set as the flag drops for the first race of the 2025 Goodwood Revival, the hour-long Freddie March Memorial Trophy, at 18:30.

Day two of the Revival will begin once again with a parade of VW Campers before a full day of racing action gets underway at 09:35 with the Goodwood Trophy. Second practice for the RAC TT Celebration at 10:10 will be the final chance for a star-studded field of drivers to hone their setups ahead of the race on Sunday, before Barry Sheene Memorial Trophy Part 1 kicks off at 11:05.

The first part of arguably the most important race of the weekend follows at 11:45, as the Austin J40s of the Settrington Cup presented by Ralph Lauren line up on the Grid for the annual pedal car race, and once the chaos has been cleared the Madgwick Cup will begin at 12:30.

The Jim Clark tribute returns at 13:50, before racing action returns with an event that always delivers, Part 1 of the St. Mary’s Trophy, which will start at 14:30 before the Fordwater Trophy at 15:25 and the second Alfa Romeo parade at 16:10. Then Saturday evening will be rounded off with the Whitsun Trophy at 16:40, before the 45-minute Stirling Moss Memorial Trophy begins at 17:35 to bring an end to day two.

Sunday on track at the 2025 Goodwood Revival

After two days packed with action, Sunday at Revival will need to be good, and we're sure it will be judging by the list of races. The Chichester Cup will follow the VW Campers to get the day off to an excitable start at 09:35 before the Sussex Trophy gets underway at 10:30. Part 2 of the Settrington Cup presented by Ralph Lauren will see the overall winner crowned at 11:20.

The Alfa Romeo Celebration will grace the Motor Circuit for the final time at 11:50, and Sunday afternoon’s racing action will begin with the return of the Barry Sheene Memorial Trophy at 12:20.

Following a brief interlude for the Revival's VE Day Celebration street party at 13:00, it’s time for the big one, the RAC TT Celebration will bring all the noise at 14:30 for an hour-long showpiece, followed, as is tradition, by the Glover Trophy at 15:55.

Sunday evening will be drawn to a close with the final running of the Jim Clark celebration before the Richmond & Gordon Trophies at 17:10, and the final race of the 2025 Revival, Part 2 of the St. Mary’s Trophy, at 18:00.
