- Bex Bastable news@chiobserve­r.co.uk

Goodwood Festival of Speed is more accessible than ever, as you can enjoy the fun even if you can’t make it this year.

There are still limited tickets available and festivalgo­ers must abide by the Covid-secure pilot policy.

But for those who won’t be going along but still want to enjoy the action, here’s how...

The Central Feature, the iconic sculpture which stands outside Goodwood House, will head in ‘a new direction to provide an immersive customer experience onevent and from home’.

This year’s sculpture, the design of which will be kept top secret until the Festival opens, will take a different philosophy and a new, immersive direction, allowing not only those at the event, but also fans watching from home, to interact with it.all Festival of Speed attendees and those enjoying the event from home will be able to download the Lotus Aeroad App to interact with the Central Feature from their own device.

The Duke of Richmond said: “The sculpture looks set to be one of the most dramatic and futuristic yet, bringing in elements of interactiv­ity for modern audiences that align with Lotus’ future-facing attitude and outlook.”

Festival of Speed organisers will also be running a live streaming service on the website each day from 9am on Thursday and 8.30am on Friday to Sunday, so you can get a glimpse of the festival from the comfort of your own home.

Three free live-streams will be available: a full event stream, rally stage and a stream with no commentary. Highlights from the event will also be shown on ITV4 at 9pm on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday.
