Special Mini races at Silverstone Classic
As many as 50 pre-1966 Minis will race at the Silverstone Classic (July 26-28) to mark the 60th anniversary of the original Mini Minor.
Masters Historic Racing will deliver a grid for two sprint races on the Silverstone GP circuit, dedicated to FIA Appendix K specification Minis. Model specialists like Nick Swift, Nick Padmore and Jonathan Lewis are expected to top the entry.
“We are delighted that Masters has been asked to organise these Mini-only celebration races,” said Ron Maydon from Masters Historic Racing.
“Minis are very close to my own heart and, in their 60th anniversary year, it only seems right that we should be showcasing a grid of 40-50 FIA-specification pre-66 Minis.”
