Dijon Grand Prix de l'Age

10 Jun 2025
Dijon Grand Prix de l'Age  From 2025’s inaugural meeting at Hockenheim, we moved on to a circuit that many of us have visited often over the years, which together with the lovely city of Dijon, is an absolute favourite! Despite some rather ‘iffy’ weather; the circuit didn’t disappoint. The Grand Prix de l’Age d’Or was originally oversubscribed and with a full reserve list; including a very healthy number of Front Engine cars with no less than six Maserati 250Fs'         All our cars including Elliott Hanns first time out this year went really well in qualifying with Guillermo Fierro being Pole in the front engine cars.

 First step of the Front Engine podium was Guillermo Fierro with John Spiers literally a gnat’s behind (0.145 seconds!). The pair of 250Fs had had a race-long battle to the huge enjoyment of the spectators. Third step of the podium went to Rod Jolley in his sparkling silver Lister Jaguar Monza.

Race 2 saw John and Guillermo trading places with John coming out on top by a very small margin this time.  The battle of the leading 250Fs was reversed with John Spiers just beating Guillermo Fierro – this time by 0.876… Rod Jolley again took the third step of the front engine podium. Once again, the Circuit Dijon-Prenois in its idyllic

Hockenheim - Das Jim Clark Revival

12 May 2025
Hockenheim - Das Jim Clark Revival The 2025 season opening round for the HGPCA was at Hockenheim. The circuit hosting the Das Jim Clark Revival event. One of Europes largest Historic Motorsport meetings. The sunny weather brought very large crowds with the stands full most days.
A busy weekend for us with 4 cars racing over the weekend, Maserati 250Fs' of Guillermo Fierro, Klaus lehr and Simon Hope, along with Steve Hart in the Maserati Engine Cooper T51
Friday saw a free practice with the drivers reacquainting themselves with the technical circuit. Although no problem for local Klaus Lehr who has raced at the Hockenheimring many times over many years.
Klaus track knowledge helped him secure 2nd in class for qualifying just behind Guillermo. Saturday saw Race 1 being the front engine only race. The Lotus 16 of Ewen Sergison outpaced Guillermo in his Maserati and won the race after a suspicious safety car period. Great results with Guillermo and Klaus both making the podium and Simon finishing 5th. 
Saturday afternoon saw the Cooper in the rear engine race. Steve finishing a very strong 8th out of 16 starters. 
Sunday was an early start with the race starting at 9.30am. A grid of 31 cars had a great race, with Steve and Guillermo having their own battle despite having a front engine and rear engine car. The lap times had fallen dramatically over the time on track with for all the drivers with great results
