Sunday 13th November saw Lancashire Automobile Club’s 9th Triennial Motorsport Luncheon at The Stirk House Hotel, Gisburn.
Following an enjoyable lunch almost 100 LAC members and fellow motorsport enthusiasts were entertained by International Driver, Tutor & Designer Mike Knight in conversation with former F1 Driver & Le Mans Winner Richard Attwood.
For the uninitiated Mike Knight is the force behind the Winfield School of Motor Racing for F1 Drivers at Magny Cours & Paul Ricard Circuit, France.
Amongst others “The Playboys” – Pironi, Laffite, Arnoux, Prost, Jarier & Jabouille passed through the hands of instructors Richard & Mike Knight at Magny-Cours.
With over 90 pole positions, 90 Grand Prix wins & 2 F1 World Champions to his credit, we heard the inside story of F1 drivers in the making.
Great day all round with a donation going to the Salvation Army. Here’s to the next Sportsmans in 2025.
