Two 1989 Brabham BT58s, as driven by Martin Brundle and Stefano Modena during the 1989 Formula 1 season, will be on track at the 2023 Adelaide Motorsport Festival.
The BT58s are the first Formula 1 cars confirmed for the 2023 Adelaide Motorsport Festival, which returns to Victoria Park on March 25 and 26, 2023 with a record number of categories, headlined by classic Formula 1 cars.
The Judd-powered V8 BT58 scored Brabham’s last podium finish at the 1989 Monaco Grand Prix in the hands of Modena.
The 2023 Adelaide Motorsport Festival will celebrate the history of the Brabham team founded by Australian legend Sir Jack Brabham; commemorating the team’s 30-year history in Formula 1 30 years since its closure and on the 40th anniversary of its last Formula 1 drivers’ championship win (Nelson Piquet in 1983).
More Formula 1 cars, sportscars, rally cars, touring cars and others attending the event will be revealed in the coming weeks.
Held on the Victoria Park section of the Adelaide Street Circuit, the action at the Adelaide Motorsport Festival is fast, furious and frequently changing, with a different category of vehicles on track every 10 to 15 minutes, including more open-wheelers headlined by classic Formula 1 cars, V8 Supercars alongside Heritage Touring Cars, a special Invitational category alongside Demonstration sessions, a Shootout for the fastest cars and more.
