Kind of irrelevant as the dates I want it to be held to fit in with my diary are unlikely to be the dates Charlie picks.

irrelevant to you but very relevant to those of us who have to organise flights, tickets and accommodation

22nd - 25th june 2017 to be announced as provisional dates in the next few days

I think it would still sell out.

i have no doubt that it would sell out with or without F1. i didn't find them that big an attraction and i am an F1 fan.

all they really did was wave to people

Some angry people on social media who claimed to have seen absolutely no mention of the fact that the date was provisional, and have booked flights from all over the world etc.

If you were travelling that far, you'd check, right? If memory serves it was pretty clear. Although I do take their point regarding why Goodwood announce a provisional date so close to the approval of the F1 calendar, why not just wait a month? It's surely not realistically going to have an overall impact on ticket sales.

i booked all based on provisional dates, its a gamble i took and lost on.
b+b was 100% about it so it only cost me £86 to amend my flights.
still worth it, or at least i hope it is.
my only reservation is that iirc it clashes with rally poland, i would love to have seen one of the 2017 wrc cars, even only as a static display
