That most British of race events, the Goodwood Revival, turned the patriotism up a notch for 2016 by bringing some very British weather. Friday’s sun was swapped for persistent wind and rain on Saturday, before a baking Sunday dried things out. Visibility was low on day two on and off the track: misty windows and spray on track, big umbrellas off it – before many simply gave up and went home.

Thankfully, the photographers stuck it out all weekend.
