Autosport Show Gallery 2017

Saturday was the first public day at the annual Autosport Show, the show which essentially launches the 2017 UK motorsport year and Paddock42 made its pilgrimage to the NEC event…

The Birmingham based show is the ideal place for us to speak with multiple championship organisers and it enables us to get a general feel as to how the season is shaping up and the view on this is generally positive. However it must be said that many clubs only opened 2017 championship registrations a week or so ago but as a whole the season is looking like it will be another busy year in UK club motorsport with good numbers or drivers talking about getting on the grid again this year.

The show had a strong historic motorsport vibe again this year and there were many examples of classic racers lined up alongside modern racers – the Williams F1 stand was a fine display of motorsport historic pedigree by the popular Oxfordshire based team. Other stands worth a mention; ‘Cossie Corner a true mecca for Sierra Cosworth fans, Historic Lotus F1 display but vehicle of the show for me has to be the V46 Valentino Rossi Transit van by M-Sport, man I want one in my drive.

Enjoy the gallery.
