Well it looks like a typical 500cc Formula 3 car of about 1947 many of which were British, but I think it is the first such car built by the Dane Kaj Hansen and that must be him at the wheel.
Opinionated but sometimes wrong

You've hit the nail on the head. I've probably only scored 2 or 3 points this year. Easy it is not!
I must be right - that's what it says on Wikipedia
