The Masters Historic Festival returns to Brands Hatch for two days of classic motorsport action on the Grand Prix circuit this spring.

The Masters Racing Legends series for normally-aspirated F1 cars headlines proceedings, with the classic sound of F1 from the ‘60s to the ‘80s returning to the venue 40 years on from the famous 1985 European Grand Prix - Nigel Mansell's first F1 victory.

A full offering of Masters Historic Racing series will feature, including the all-new Masters Demo Legends for 90s F1 cars, showcasing exhilarating 3.5-litre machines. Confirmed F1 cars taking part in the demonstration on the GP circuit include a Leyton House March 871, Footwork Arrows FA14 and a Jordan 194. A Jordan EJ12 will also take part in the demo laps.

Further thunderous single-seater action will feature packed grids from both the F2 Classic Interseries and F3 Classic Interseries.

The Masters Sports Car Legends, the Masters Gentleman Drivers, Masters GT Trophy and Masters Pre-66 Touring Cars round out a packed schedule.

Tickets will be available on the gate
