Since then, this annual run has become one of the most popular events on the British motoring calendar,【24】w______ crowds of over one million lining the route. Only the【25】v______oldest cars, constructed during the ten years between 1895 and 1905, are allowed to take part in it.

The only【27】rew______for finishing is a medal, which is awarded to everyone who【28】r______Brighton before 4’ 00pm. The run traditionally【29】att______participants from all four corners of the world, including Europe, Asia, Africa and Australia.
