The 80th anniversary of the first car race at Donington Park in 1933 is to be celebrated with exclusive races for machinery built and raced prior to 1940 at the third Donington Historic Festival on May 3-5, 2013. The Historic Grand Prix Cars Association has been invited to organize the doubleheader.
An evocative field of Alfa Romeo, Bugatti, ERA, Maserati, Talbot-Lago, Alta, Delage, MG and Frazer Nash cars, plus a rare supercharged twin-cam Austin 7, is expected. The HGPCA is planning to award a Tazio Nuvolari Trophy, in memory of the great Italian ace who won the 1938 Donington Grand Prix for Auto Union, to the overall winner of the Sunday’s feature finale.
