Charles has asked me many times over the years, but it’s always clashed with my commitment to the Toronto Indycar race where I drive the two-seater. The middle weekend of July usually sees Andretti giving high speed VIP rides in a two-seat Indycar but he said the Maestro theme was too good to pass up: “The invitation for Goodwood this year is very welcome.
To celebrate his long and illustrious career, Goodwood will be assembling some of Andretti’s most famous competition cars on the Hill. His skill behind the wheel and sheer passion for all forms of motorsport made him a winner on dirt ovals, superspeedways, road courses and street circuits.
Mario, who celebrates his 80 th birthday on 28 February 2020, was the original inspiration behind this year’s Festival of Speed theme: “The Maestros – Motorsport’s Great All-Rounders”. Goodwood is proud to announce that one of greatest all-round racing drivers of all time, Mario Andretti, is to be celebrated at the 2020 Festival of Speed presented by Mastercard, taking place from 9-12 July.
