Radio comms at race circuits

[Teletubby]

I would like to say that the GP has prompted me to comment about how well the communications work at Silverstone, not just for the GP but for every meeting. Pam does a fantastic job and, as a radio user at the events that I attend, it makes a huge difference! Di Hardy is just as good at Donington but other than these two ladies I really can't think of anywhere else that even comes close! And some places are absolutely dire, poor radio procedure, the need to try to inject 'hilarious' remarks and lack of control really wind me up. I get really really irritated when a Rescue Unit is scrambled to an incident and then, upon arrival, when you want to talk to control they are busy arranging breakdowns! I appreciate the need to get things moving but at least wait for an update before pressing on just in case assistance is required at the scene. Meetings at Silverstone and Donington flow really well and yet you never have to wait for 'Breakdown 2' to finish rambling before you can get through!
