HSCC Silverstone Finals – Italian Pace and Single-Seater Action
Report by Jeff Silver Photography
13 October 2026
Silverstone’s National Circuit hosted the Historic Sports Car Club’s Championship Finals on 10th and 11th October 2026, bringing together a varied programme of historic racing for the season’s closing meeting. From nimble single-seaters to powerful Italian machinery, there was plenty to keep spectators watching as the cars swept through the corners and accelerated towards the next braking point.
The distinctive sound of historic racing filled the circuit, with contrasting machinery providing plenty of variety throughout the weekend. Away from the racing, the pits and paddock offered a closer look at the cars and the preparations needed to keep them competing.
Broome doubles up in the Italian Intermarque
Toby Broome delivered an impressive performance in the HITEK Alfa Romeo & Italian Intermarque Championship, putting his number 1 Alfa Romeo 4C on pole with a qualifying lap of 1 minute 2.552 seconds. That placed him 2.936 seconds ahead of #46 Mike Hilton’s Maserati Gransport Trofeo.
Both races took place on Sunday, and Broome converted that qualifying pace into two overall victories. In the opening encounter, he completed 19 laps to finish 9.773 seconds ahead of Hilton, also setting the fastest lap at 1 minute 1.816 seconds. Mark Skeggs brought his Alfa Romeo GTV home third overall and first in the Power Trophy class.
Broome repeated the result in race two, extending his winning margin over Hilton to 16.474 seconds across 20 laps. Another fastest lap, a 1 minute 1.730 seconds, completed a strong double for the 4C driver. Skeggs again finished third overall, with Nathan Bignell fourth in his Alfa Romeo 147 GTA.
The 4C’s striking appearance made it easy to pick out, but its results told the more significant story: pole position, two wins, and both fastest laps.
Storer takes two podiums in Formula Ford 2000
The Historic Formula Ford 2000 Championship provided another highlight. Andrew Storer qualified his number 72 Reynard SF79 third, while Alisdair Graham secured seventh on the grid in his number 42 Delta T78.
Sunday’s first race ended with Ben Glasswell taking victory in his Reynard SF77. Storer moved up from his starting position to finish second, 4.733 seconds behind, with Adrian Reynard completing the podium.
Graham finished ninth after 13 laps, just 1.058 seconds behind Roger Price. His fastest lap of 1 minute 2.450 seconds was quicker than his qualifying best, showing improved pace even though his finishing position was two places lower than his grid position.
The second race required a restart, with the final classification covering eight laps. Storer again finished runner-up to Glasswell, reducing the gap to 2.823 seconds and recording his best lap on the final tour. Graham’s weekend ended without a second classified finish: the timing sheet records that cars 42 and 54 did not participate in the restarted race.
Two second places gave Storer a consistent finish to the meeting, while Graham’s opening-race pace offered a positive alongside the disappointment of the second encounter.
Broome’s commanding double and Storer’s pair of podium finishes were among the notable performances at Silverstone, rounding off a weekend that brought together the speed, sound, and variety of historic motorsport.
