Bringing Goodwood to the U.S.A.

At the second annual Willow Springs Reimagined we sit down with Marino Franchitti (pro driver and Singer's head development driver) to talk about what makes for a good (and bad) test driver, and racing the oddly-shaped Delta Wing (look it up).
Then, the Duke of Richmond Charles Gordon-Lennox. He literally created two of the best events in the world of cars: Goodwood Festival of Speed and the Goodwood Revival. The Duke is joining the forces of Willow Springs to bring the Goodwood magic to the USA. We cover a lot of ground, from the surprising story of how the original GW came to be, the plans for Willow and a larger vintage series in America.
All that and more.
