J'AIME JANUARY 2019

as every year racing legends
and household names are
interviewed live on stage. Last
year's biggest stars were 1992
F1 World Champion Nigel
Mansell and heroic young
Billy Monger, who made a
successful return to racing
after suffering a doubleleg
amputation following a
life-threatening crash last
year. This year's stars have
not yet been confirmed
but check their website
regularly for updates at www.
autosportinternational.com.
Performance and Tuning
Car Show
If you are more of a Fastand-Furious
fan than Formula
1, than chances are the
Performance and Tuning car show is for you. An
integral part of the Autosport International Show,
the Performance and Tuning car show has plenty of
exotic cars on display, with hundreds of suppliers and
manufacturers displaying all of the hottest latest car
mods. It's the perfect event for car enthusiasts who
take their car modification seriously.
Silverstone Auctions
If you still have some money burning a hole in
your pocket after Christmas than the Silverstone
Auctions’ one-day auction is right up your alley,
with best of breed classic and competition cars on
offer on Saturday, January 12. There are always a
lot of cars on offer that would sit nicely in anyone's
dream garage and make me wish I could win the
mega-millions to claim a few for myself! One of the
highlights of the auction this year will be an exworks
1966 Ford Cortina Lotus, driven and raced by
legends of the sport Graham Hill and Jimmy Clark.
It's expected to fetch more than £200,000 once the
hammer drops!
F1 Racing Feature, BTCC display and much
much more!
The F1 Racing Magazine feature is back with a
display of some of the most breathtaking cars on
the planet. The tech-talk stand is back with a host of
guest speakers who will cover topical and important
subjects from engineering to car-modding DIY
tutorials. The British Touring Car Championship
will have another strong presence again this year and
is always one of the crowd’s favourite attractions,
with many BTCC cars on display. Last year's show
saw champions Gordon Shedden, Matt Neal, and
newly crowned champion Ashley
Sutton take part in signing
sessions, live interviews and
entertaining the fans.
