Yes indeed. Exactly what it is, but just about every light car maker in the UK used to enter that race to publicise its products. Which marque is it?

Looks smaller than the well-known Alvis, so possibly Clyno

Neither Alvis nor Clyno.

Yes! I also asked for the year, but Allan L had already mentioned the Brooklands 200-mile races of the early 1920s, so there's no point in going on . It's actually a car entered for the 1921 race.
