'Elevated position'
Goodwood managing director Rod Fabricius said: "As I understand it, a car being driven by our vet Andy Duncan was being parked in its normal position on the inside of the track when it accelerated backwards.
"It went through a rail and down a bank from its elevated position into car park number two, where it rammed into other vehicles which were already parked but still occupied.
"I believe passengers in Andy Duncan's car were injured, and so were racegoers in the parked cars. They have been taken to hospital."
A spokeswoman for South East Coast Ambulance said three people had suffered crushing to their lower limbs and two other people sustained minor injuries.A spokeswoman for South East Coast Ambulance said three people had suffered crushing to their lower limbs and two other people sustained minor injuries.
