The Goodwood Revival, 18-20 September, is set to mark the centenary of Maserati’s first major triumph at the Targa Florio, “with an exceptional collection of cars.”
“No marque in history has embraced the highs and lows of motorsport more enigmatically than Maserati,” Goodwood Revival said in a press release. “From beautiful cars and legendary drivers to glorious victories, and occasional setbacks, Maserati has always chased success with unmistakable, charismatic Italian flair.”
The story began in 1926 when Alfieri Maserati drove the Tipo 26 to a class win at the race at the Targa Florio, the first of many triumphs that laid the foundation for decades of motorsport wins.
At this year’s event, the legacy will be celebrated including cars on track and “chic mid-century fashion,” with the event set to “embrace La Dolce Vita.” The paddocks will be transformed to evoke the “dusty, sun-soaked roads of post-war Sicily and the golden era of the Targa Florio, immersing visitors in the romance and spirit of Italy.”
Over 50 pre-1966 Maseratis will take to the track, each with its own story to tell in the company’s racing history. Look out fort he largest gathering of the 250F, along with other notable models including the 150S, 200Si, 300S, 350S, 450S, 4CL, 4CM, 8C, 8CM, A6GCS, Tipo 151, Tipo 63, V4 and V8RI, among many more.
The Maserati celebration joins the previously announced Vespa track opening parade, the reunion of the 1-2-3 finishers from the 1966 24 Hours of Le Mans and tribute to racing legend Barry Sheene.
