The first 20 years has seen numerous MARTINI Racing-liveried racing cars and ex-works superstar drivers compete on the Goodwood hill. For 2013, however, a record number of cars adorned with the distinctive red and blue striped livery of MARTINI Racing will be gathered together for the very first time.

At least 14 legendary machines will represent 45 years of MARTINI Racing history at the Festival of Speed – nine of which will be grouped together in their own paddock area – the MARTINI Terazza – located near the popular Formula 1 paddocks. Bringing a touch of playful living ‘Italian style’, the MARTINI Terazza® will be serving the world-famous liquid which gave its name to the racing team, flanked by mouth-watering liveried Porsche and Lancias.

During the 1970s to 1990s MARTINI Racing supported several of motor sport’s greatest heroes, including Jacky Ickx, Colin McRae, Michael Schumacher, Filipe Massa and many more. The tri-colour motor sport outfit won multiple titles throughout the years, including three Le Mans 24 Hours victories and multiple Grand Prix race wins. The outfit was best known though for its long and successful involvement in the World Rally Championship (WRC) competition, winning seven world titles – six consecutively from 1987 to 1992 – a record which remains an unbroken in the 40 year history of the WRC.

Martini is a registered trade mark
