Early Brooklands Double Twelve
This playlist is from the recreated historic Double Twelve event at Brooklands Museum — one of the biggest events of the year, held over two days. It was recreated to remember that on the 28th and 29th of June 1907, just eleven days after the Brooklands circuit opened, the world's first 24-hour motor event on a closed circuit took place at Brooklands.
However, in the years that followed, objections from local residents meant that the race was modified into two 12-hour sections from 8am to 8pm, with the cars locked away overnight. Here you can get a flavour of some of these annual occurrences in recent years.
