The team are working hard to ensure the paddocks are bursting with the most talented drivers and riders alongside the most iconic road and race machines in the world. They are also delving into the more obscure corners of the motorsport world to ensure the Festival of Speed maintains and enhances its reputation as the greatest motorsport show on earth.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Away from the Hill, there will be several changes made to the event this year, with the relocation of some attractions, and the introduction of new ones.
