Classic Car Comment The opening VSCC Formula Vintage meeting at Silverstone on Saturday (13 April) was quite rightly dominated by Bentley, celebrating their 100 years with a 45-minute race. And in typical Benjafield fashion, rules were cast aside, and a Le Mans start saw 40 drivers sprinting across the track before firing up their cars. It was all jolly good fun.
