Goodwood Festival of Speed - Free Tickets?

Has anyone seen any free tickets on offer for The Goodwood Festival of Speed in July?

The Times usually have them available for the Friday (a limited number) but apart from the subscription offer I have not seen any available this year, from them or anyone else.

I have googled but not found any, thought I'd ask here to see if anyone knew.

Many thanks.

    they have started to advertise it in the sunday times - last year if I remember there were no free tickets - I am hoping that tickets sales will be slow so they will need to give some away

    Last year there WERE free tickets but it was all very sneakily done - someone posted on the Times website page about Goodwood that they had emailed and asked about free tickets, and they then posted a link. They were snapped up within hours without it ever being 'publicly' advertised...

    It's on again, but this year they are marketing it as a competition to win pairs of tickets for Friday 3rd July rather than as a straight giveaway. Entries close 14th June.

    I do remember there being freebies last year. It's also worth checking the competitions thread to try and win some...I've already seen some competitions for it on there.
