Masters of Motoring 2024 presented by Footman James,<br />

which is being staged over the weekend of the 1stand 2nd<br />

of June at Castle Combe Race Circuit and Bowood House<br />

& Gardens continues to attract leading automotive brands for the<br />

event.<br />

<strong>The</strong> latest to join the ranks is Alpine, the sports car arm of Renault.<br />

<strong>The</strong> brand (www.alpine-cars.co.uk), nowadays seen in the both the<br />

Formula One and World Endurance Championships, is expanding its<br />

range and reach. Visitors to Masters of Motoring will be able to get<br />

up close and personal with examples of the pretty Alpine A110 range.<br />

<strong>The</strong> French machine, which is a modern interpretation of the famous<br />

A110 of the 60s and 70s which gained a huge reputation in rallying<br />

and has been lauded as one of the best small sportscars in the world<br />

by media and owners alike.<br />

Joining Alpine at this year’s event will be award-winning<br />

automotive marketing company Chicane (www.chicane.marketing),<br />

which celebrates its 25th birthday in 2024. Chicane specialises<br />

in Automotive PR and Marketing, and is putting its name and<br />

branding to the event’s VIP hospitality area as part of its anniversary<br />

celebrations. <strong>The</strong> Chicane VIP Hospitality Area will be a feature, not<br />

only of Masters of Motoring, but also of the Great British Motor Show<br />

signature events at Harewood House later in June and Derbyshire’s<br />

famous Chatsworth House as well as Arley Hall in Cheshire, and<br />

Kelmarsh Hall in Northamptonshire over the course of the Summer.<br />

Chicane will host a variety of media and automotive industry guests<br />

at each event.<br />

“We are delighted that Alpine has decided to be part of Masters<br />

of Motoring presented by Footman James. It is a truly global brand<br />

that really resonates with anyone with an interest in cars,” enthuses<br />

Masters of Motoring Event Director, Steve Bishop.” I am also looking<br />

forward very much to seeing the Chicane VIP Hospitality Areas at our<br />

top events this year. This is our second year of working with them,<br />

and we are delighted that they have chosen to invest in the event to<br />

help celebrate their 25th Birthday. We look forward, very much, to<br />

welcoming both companies into the Masters of Motoring fold.”<br />

<strong>The</strong> Masters of Motoring organisers are also pleased to announce<br />

that the Masters website has been further upgraded, in the runup<br />

to the event and for the future. <strong>The</strong> event website, in its latest<br />

incarnation, has a familiar feel to it, but is intended to be easier<br />

to use, should offer faster access and will allow greater flexibility<br />

to adapt to the changing and expanding needs of the event as it<br />

develops and moves forward. <strong>The</strong> website URL remains the same:<br />

www.mastersofmotoring.com<br />
