Actor Kelvin Fletcher won the Celebrity Challenge ahead of Sarasota Café Racer Brian Johnson and Jamiroquai’s Jay Kay at the Silverstone Classic.
The annual race at the world’s biggest classic motor racing festival with its Rocking and Racing theme raised money for the Birmingham Children’s Hospital, the Bobby Moore Fund for Cancer Research UK and the RPJ Chron’s Foundation.
All were in identical race-prepped 130-mph Morgans, but it was Fletcher who came out on top. Starting from pole position he led all the way and also set the race’s fastest lap around the legendary Silverstone Grand Prix track.
“It was fantastic. The crowds were awesome as were the guys who loaned us these magic cars. This is the best event on the planet and, what’s more, it’s right here on our doorstep in the UK. I’ve had a wonderful time. It was terrific fun,” said AC/DC frontman Johnson, top photo, left.
