It was open to the then current Formula 1 cars of 1.5-litres supercharged, or 4.5-litres unsupercharged, and was the first such race to take place post-WWII in the British Isles. It pre-dated both Goodwood and Silverstone, but was cancelled in 1951 and did not survive after being held for sportscars in 1952.
