International Historic Motoring Awards Finalists Announced
The finalists in each of the 12 categories of the International Historic Motoring Awards have been announced, with the panel of judges now set to deliberate over the winners - with the exception of the Car of the Year category which goes to a public vote.
The awards will take place at London’s Guildhall on November 17th, and it is pleasing to see some well-deserved names in the various shortlists, which also includes recognition for some of the less obvious, but nonetheless intrinsic to our sport, candidates. We were delighted to see Aston Martin specialist Ecurie Bertelli named in two categories, recognition for Julius Thurgood’s HRDC Academy programme, and the HSCC’s Grahame White after the huge efforts of the club to promote their 50th anniversary this year.
