It's one of the few events where the public can get close to the cars, and see so many kinds of cars, and going up the hill is a fun thing to be doing in a Formula One car. 12. (SOUNDBITE)(ENGLISH) LORD MARCH SAYS We're very proud of our tenth anniversary. I'm not too sure if it seems like a long time or a short time. But obviously a major part of this year is the 100 years of Ford as they have played a huge part in everything going on this weekend, with a fantastic display in front of the house and a wonderful collection of Ford racing history. 13. (SOUNDBITE)(GERMAN) UNIDENTIED GERMAN VISITOR SAYS I was lucky enough to attend the 1969 Le Mans 24 hours race and saw the dramatic final stage in which Jacky Ickx (in a Ford GT40) beat Hans Heymann's Porsche by 60 or 80 metres. 14.
