"The Goodwood Festival of Speed is one of the best events of the summer season and Lord March's beautiful estate has become a place of pilgrimage for car enthusiasts," said Palmer. "Being the first person to drive the new DB11 up the famous hillclimb at Goodwood is a great honour on behalf of all our employees."
