What is Ignition GP?
Ignition GP is the result of an exciting collaboration between Supercar Driver (SCD) and ex F1 test driver and Le Mans driver, Jonathan Kennard. Set up in 2021, we aim to bring together the very finest Grand Prix cars from what we believe is the most exciting era of Grand Prix racing, 1989 through to 1997 with some special guests up to 2005. Our first event in 2021 was at Donington Park, the home of the 1993 European Grand Prix. It was a huge success with multiple race winning cars in attendance and a new generation of fans being able to see these amazing cars running at speed.
A Celebration of Grand Prix Cars from 1989-1997
“I am happy to support Ignition GP in bringing back the wonderful Grand Prix cars of the 1990’s, an era I have very fond memories of. The team at Ignition GP have done a wonderful job so far and I look forward to attending an event.”

Major Players
Think Ferrari, Williams, McLaren, Leyton House. Senna, Prost, Hill, Mansell, Berger, Schumacher.
We have brought back the terrific noise, energy and thrill of these wonderful cars for people to see once more and we couldn’t be more excited about it.
Lights out
We aim to assemble the very finest, period-correct cars for demonstration events throughout 2022. Our first event will be on the 9-10th April at the Goodwood Members Meeting. We aim to build upon what was a highly successful ‘Secret Meet’ for Ignition GP in 2021 by adding a spectacle second to none.
