In the world of motorsport, the environments of pre-war categories in the UK and Formula 1 are starkly contrasting. Vijay Mallya, known for his tenure at Force India F1, now enjoys the relaxed and fun atmosphere of club events and vintage car racing. His passion for cars led him to collect and race vehicles like the 1939 BMW 328 and the 1926 Sunbeam Tiger away from the F1 scene. Mallya appreciates the variety of events in England that allow him to compete and have fun on the track with organizations like Motor Racing Legends and Vintage Sports-Car Club. The former F1 team owner acknowledges the need for more track time but is relishing every moment back in the racing seat after a 20-year hiatus, showing improvement with each race. Mallya’s coach, Chris Ward, emphasizes the importance of enjoying motorsport and notes Mallya’s progress and enjoyment behind the wheel. At Donington, both Mallya and Ward had a great time driving the BMW, exemplifying the joy and relaxed approach to historic racing.
