Hmm, yes, didn't copy and paste very well. It came from the Silverstone site.

One suspects the ELMS guys will, rather more than usually, need their headlights...

The timetable (on fiawec.com) suggests that qualifying is the same 20 min format as last year.
I thought it had changed to an hour long session and two drivers had to post 2 times and the average would set the grid. Has this been done away with? |

Are you going to the Hotel and then the circuit, on the Friday, or straight to the circuit? If you're going to the Hotel first, then M1, if the circuit M40. Actually you could just go M1... as that will save some distance and time, but the M1 is notoriously terrible. Then again the M25 around by Staines and Heathrow, etc... is also typically quite bad..!
ETA : The other thing to try and check is the traffic, although it should be "okay" at that time on a Friday... If the gantries are displaying long delays one way or the other, then go the other way!! If both, try and choose the least severe sounding direction.. What day are you returning on and what time? |

The M1 has improved in the last months, the roadworks between Luton and Milton Keynes are finishing.

All depends on what approach to Blackwall going South looks like - not direction I go in at that time I'm afraid. |

Just about to book the tickets and noticed you can buy program's at a reduced price. Are they actually any good for the WEC or will it be as awful as the one I bought a Spa last year for the F1?

I like getting a program, I treat them like souvenirs, so I've no problem with paying £5 for one, particularly since support race entry lists are often not widely available. They're probably more useful to a first-time visitor to a sportscar race meeting than anything else, I admit. |

I always buy one. Even if I don't look at it and it goes straight into a drawer or box somewhere it doesn't bother me. They really come into their own years down the line I think.

Sadly I am going to MIA for this one. My wife had a fall just over 2 weeks ago and now has a badly broken arm so I am needed at home to look after both her and our 8 month old daughter.
I am gutted to be missing this one, but I will be watching on Tele....all being well..... |

That's bad luck - for both of you Rob. I hope your better half is on the mend soon. Still, all those extra nappies to deal with - you lucky chap!

Thanks to Ten-Tenths and Nissan, I will be releasing a ELMS and WEC Spotter Guide next week (Tues or Wed). All 25 cars, have a couple of uncertainties the ELMS one at the moment, but have pretty much everything else.
The Guides will be on www.spotterguides.com Thanks to Nissan and in particular, DailySportscar, RadioLeMans.com and of course Ten-Tenths. |
