CarFest 2025 is bringing even more horsepower, heritage, and heart-pounding spectacle to the Michelin-Protyre Autocare Track and it’s shaping up to be one of our most thrilling line-ups yet.

Leading the charge are very special guests Richard Hammond and his daughter Izzy Hammond, who will be joining us across the weekend. From Top Gear to The Grand Tour, Richard is one of Britain’s most beloved automotive presenters, and at CarFest, he’ll be giving fans an up-close look at his incredible collection of cars from The Smallest Cog. Expect famous four-wheeled stars like the 1970s Buick Riviera from “Lochdown”, rally-bred favourite “Martin” the WRX STI, his beloved Ford Capri GXL, and of course, the unforgettable “Oliver”, his iconic 1963 Opel Kadett. Izzy Hammond, rising presenter, podcaster and motoring enthusiast, will also join the action, bringing her own passion and perspective on what it means to grow up in a car-loving household.

Alongside The Smallest Cog and all the paddock excitement, we’ll be showcasing an unbeatable series of themed track shows, each celebrating a different era or genre of automotive excellence. From American muscle to historic rally stars, every moment promises noise, nostalgia, and jaw-dropping spectacle.

Among our hero cars, don’t miss the Born in the USA 1932 Ford Model B Roadster, the classic 1958 Porsche 356A Cabriolet in Hooked on Classics, and the new Track Stars: Open Wheel addition—the legendary 1992 Benetton B192, once driven by F1 giants Michael Schumacher and Martin Brundle. Motorsport fans can also catch the Spice C2 Le Mans racer, Ken Block’s outrageous Fiesta WRC, and the iconic Lancia 037 rally car – the last rear-wheel drive to win the World Rally Championship.

Of course, our full-throttle celebration wouldn’t be complete without some of the coolest vehicles on display, like the flamboyant 1955 Chevy ‘Cherry Bomb’ dragster, the original 1968 Meyers Manx dune buggy, or the outrageous Mongrel Dogz Ford F100 drift truck.

So, whether you’re here to see the stars, admire the builds, or just soak up the revs and roars, the Michelin-Protyre Autocare Track promises edge-of-your-seat energy and pure petrolhead joy.

See you on the start line!
