The Goodwood Festival of Speed is a celebration of everything automotive like no other. No other automotive event manages to bring together motorsport, motorsport legends, production cars, classic cars, automotive history and the future of automobiles in quite the same way. The 2017 FOS celebrated Peaks of Performance - motorsport game changers over the years, and also celebrated the life and contribution of one Bernie Ecclestone to motorsport. Here's a glimpse at what made the 2017 FOS such a delight.
