i went on Friday to FoS with my daughter who is almost as much of a car nut as I am. As usual we had a wonderful day, and weren't we lucky with the weather? Some observations:

1 As usual the cars are the stars, and as usual there was a stunning array of them, both showing their prowess up the hill or simply looking stunning in the various displays.
2 This year seemed much busier on Friday than previous years - more tickets sold? Occasionally in some areas a bit too busy, e.g. F1 Paddock early afternoon.
3 Very disappointed that no 2014 F1 cars to see (if I'm wrong please correct me, but only 2014 car I saw was on Williams stand, and that, I think, was a demo.)
4 The ruling that to run current F1 cars up the hill was testing is just plain crazy!
5 We both had a fantastic day, as usual, topped off by the Typhoon putting in an appearance as we were leaving.

I think there's every chance we'll be there again next year, and will enjoy it as much all over again.
