You're not the only one . Hoping to get a who's driving what list and maybe a few more bits of news soon.

I have to agree... they have been very slow in coming forward with news this year....

JGoodwood... hope you are reading this...

So it's the annual, who's going to be getting up the earliest on the Thursday/Friday on Pistonheads ?. I'll be up at 3:30, hoping to be in the car park for 6:30.

Well it sure as hell wont be me based on that...I live about 45 minutes away.... and the Mrs is not too keen on getting there at the crack of dawn...

Well, you're going to get up earlier than me - [Friday] 5.30am up for a 6 o'clock set off from Yateley, get there for doors open at 7

If I could justify such an early start to the Mrs., I would suggest meeting up and travelling down together (from Sandhurst)

45 now.....

Cut and paste off the site (hence the poor formatting!)

How will Mercedes have an F1 car running, I thought the testing ban ment only year old cars could drive like last year. I presume it will actually be a Brawn F1 car with Merc livery??

Think the best can hope for is Jenson in last years Brawn...

[thatone1967]

I have to say, pretty poor show by Goodwood in updating the website... cannot remember it being updated so late on, and the fact we are getting all our info from other sites... come on goodwood.. catch up!

Hope this works: List of drivers

http://www.rally.ie/uploads/2010/05/24/0f1a6c9d5ad...


Its like the list of drivers/cars like we saw issued a few times in the lead up to the event in the last few years. I cant find it on the official site

Cheers . It says Button is in the MP4-25 (The current one? if i'm not mistaken?) I thought they weren't alowed to drive this years cars?. Also Rosberg in the new Mercedes GP and they also say the latest Ferrari F1 car?.

I wonder how that works.. I am sure Button did not drive the Brawn last year?

Stop it... you're making me very nervous!

You could always take your mind off it by lettings us know who's coming J!

Any one else got any more news? Note to Goodwood website designers, put back the "latest news section" with the news releases in chronilogical order, made things very easy in last few years. Now stuff is buried in the site all in different sections and is all quite old at the mo

I cant wait. I visit Goodwood every year since 2005

I'll combine it with a carspotting trip in London

Never been one for "car spotting" per se... but did see this last time I was in London

i think it is when you ordered them, most people on here who have recieved them orcered them pre xmas or just after.thinking of offering to pick mine up only live 10 minutes away

I would be very surprised if they are actually sent from Goodwood.. I would imagine that this would be sub-contracted to a mailing house?
