When all eyes are on Goodwood, Le Mans or Spa, great things can happen in a more peaceful corner of Europe: a weekend gathering of great historic racing cars at the Autódromo Internacional do Algarve/ Portimão Circuit.

If you really love classic racing cars and you’re not really into glamour and tweed, here you can enjoy a pre-war sports cars race and, an hour later, feel the vibrations as GT40s, E-Types or Lolas pass by.

Hosting 11 European Classic Championships, the 2015 Algarve Classic Festival had the participation of Classic Endurance Racing presented by Peter Auto, the GT & Sports Car Cup, Motor Racing Legends, 50’s Sports Cars and several others.
