In an extraordinary, never-to-be-repeated event, the weekend of 1/2nd July 2023 saw over 70 classic Bentleys racing at the historic Le Mans circuit in northwest France.
Following a spectacular send-off by HRH Prince Michael of Kent, 30 of the cars drove to France from St James Palace. The entire field of drivers then reassembled in Le Mans at the weekend to take on one of the most celebrated circuits in the world in a specially dedicated Bentley-exclusive race. With a crowd of over 230,000 watching, it was the biggest historic race meet in history.
In an act of enormous generosity true to the club’s spirit, the Benjafield’s Racing Club donated all proceeds from the weekend – including a breathtaking auction – to Sepsis Research FEAT. The charity is thrilled to have been part of such a prestigious event and very grateful indeed to the Benjafield’s club and its members for their wonderful support.
