MoneyGram Haas F1 Team to Debut at Goodwood Festival of Speed

The VF-23 and VF-24 will be in action throughout the four days, with a full driver line-up and schedule to be confirmed at a later date. As well as being an Official Partner of the Festival of Speed, MoneyGram Haas F1 Team will be the only Formula 1 team to have an interactive hub at the heart of the event, in addition to a presence in the Ballroom Paddock.

The activation space near the start line will play host to a celebration of MoneyGram Haas F1 Team’s journey throughout its 10 seasons, with the VF-16 – the team’s first car to contend in the championship – as well as the VF-25 fresh from the British Grand Prix days earlier – displayed together. The team’s archives featuring race suits, helmets, car parts and team memorabilia will be showcased, along with activities for the whole family; including sim rigs and interactive games.  

MoneyGram Haas F1 Team will be joined on-site by another magnificent celebration as the 2025 Festival of Speed marks the 75th anniversary of the FIA Formula 1 World Championship. Teams, drivers and cars will make the Goodwood Estate their home for the weekend, with a full program for fans to enjoy.

“I’m so glad to finally announce our debut at the 2025 Festival of Speed, it’s a secret that’s been very hard to keep,” commented Ayao Komatsu, Team Principal of MoneyGram Haas F1 Team. “It makes perfect sense for us to celebrate our tenth season in the sport with some of the most knowledgeable and passionate fans in the world, and it’s the first time we’ve been able to activate at such a scale off-track like this, so I’d like to thank The Duke of Richmond and his team for making this possible for our team. There are going to be a lot more announcements to come around what we’re going to be doing at Goodwood, it’s going to be one of the highlights of our year.”

“I’m over the moon to be attending Goodwood this year,” commented Ollie Bearman, driver for MoneyGram Haas F1 Team. “It’s such a fantastic event for the UK and I was lucky enough to be there last year, so this will be my second visit to Goodwood. It’s a special year for the team, celebrating racing in Formula 1 for 10 seasons, and I’m excited to see everyone support us over the weekend – it’s going to be a lot of fun.”

“The Goodwood Festival of Speed is an amazing event. I’ve been there once in the past but I’m really looking forward to going with the team this year as it is 10 seasons since MoneyGram Haas F1 Team joined Formula 1,” shared Esteban Ocon, driver for MoneyGram Haas F1 Team. “We’re going to have lots of exciting things to show – it’s a celebration for us – and it’s great that we can share with fans as well. It’s always fun as we’re driving the cars we love and on top of that, there’s no pressure – you’re there just to have fun and share those moments with everyone there. It’s always a beautiful event, I’m excited to look around and see the historical cars with a lot of history and passion, I might bring my family as well as they’ve never been.”
