The 2017 Goodwood Festival of Speed is set to kick off on June 29. With this year's theme being 'Peaks of Performance – Motorsport's Game-Changers', a lot of high-octane, high-speed fun can be expected; there's even a car making its world debut.
Here's a look at what can be expected at the upcoming event:
McLaren 570S Spider

McLaren's mid-engined Sports Series supercar gets a drop-top makeover to produce the new Spider, which will make its public debut at Goodwood. It uses an electrically-operated, two-part folding roof mechanism that's similar to the one fitted to the 650S and 675LT Spiders.
Mini Countryman Cooper S E All4

Mini's first-ever electrified model will make an appearance at the Festival of Speed. The turbocharged 1.5-litre, three-cylinder petrol engine delivers 136hp and 220Nm, while the brushless electric motor serves up 88hp and 165Nm.
Vauxhall VXR8 GTS-R

Likely to be Vauxhall's last ever V8-engined car, the VXR8 GTS-R will be taking to Goodwood to celebrate the VXR8's final 15 units, which have an increased power output of 595hp.
Honda Civic Type R

The hardcore Civic Type R will also be present at Goodwood, and its 320hp power output should make it one of the quicker hill climbers. It already has a front-wheel-drive Nürburgring lap record under its belt, after all.
Ford GT

Ford will send its GT road car up the famous hill climb, piloted by Ford Chip Ganassi Racing drivers Andy Priaulx and Harry Tincknell, along with its Mustang GT4 racing car.
Ford Fiesta

The seventh-generation Fiesta gets an all-new plush cabin, new Vignale option and a high-rise Active model.
Proton Iriz R5

Proton may have just been confirmed to be under new management of Volvo's parent company, Geely, but that won't stop it from showing off its latest rallying weapon, the Iriz R5, which will be joined by a team of Group B rallying heroes.
