Coincidence they are visiting Bathurst in the first week of October?

Prince Harry is a bit of a Motor Racing notable in as much as he is the official patron of the 'Silverstone Experience'. He also went to Abu Dhabi for a few days including the GP in 2018 to celebrate Lewis Hamilton's WDC.

Quote:
His Royal Highness is the official patron of the Silverstone Experience, which is being built inside a former Wellington bomber hanger located within the grounds of the track and is expected to attract over 500,000 visitors a year.

As well as celebrating the history of the track and that of British Motorsport, the Silverstone Experience will also work closely with the Silverstone University Technical College and play a key role in inspiring the next generation of motorsport engineers.

After turning the ceremonial lights from red to green in the hangar, Prince Harry said: “It is well known that Britain is a leader in high performance engineering and motor racing engineering in particular. But it is no exaggeration to say that unless we encourage more young people to study science, technology, engineering and mathematics it will be impossible for us to continue to lead in this field.

“The Silverstone Experience will be an exhilarating attraction, based here at the home of British motorsport and I’m sure it will help to engage children in engineering by making that all important connection between their textbooks and the excitement and thrills of motorsport.”

I thought he'd be more Vauxhall? The Markle family would probably fit right in with the Reid Park crowd....

I can already hear the cringe worthy interview where they're asked if they're Ford or Holden fans.

Most of this thread's comments are unfunny, particularly those suggesting Harry's new bride will be murdered shortly.

They seem like nice young people. But do we need to fawn and grovel over them just because he was born to the 'right' family?

So the royal itinerary didn't end up quite matching the race date.

Maybe Harry watched it on TV instead
