Yes F3 were there testing, they were doing laps at 1'01'm and sounded absolutely awesome. I got talking to the Junior Red Bull team who all seemed really happy, instead of grumbling about track times, tyre pressures...etc as the others were all doing.
The noise of the launch control was amazing but I'm afraid I didn't get any pictures.
On the way out at about 8pm there was an overturned BMW, might have been a convertible? It certainly ended up that way.
at the entrance to Snetterton. Not entirely sure how it ended up that way in a 10mph limit but quite spectacular all the same.

And in true Lotus tradition its all on a shoestring (compared to the other F3 teams) 1.01 is quick, although I do not know what other classes of race car times are at present. I do know that BSB times are around 1.04 or so. Wish I had known F3 LITE were testing I'd have gone look.

Weird? Maybe it crashed on the circuit and the owner had it towed/dragged off the circuit so they could make a claim on the insurance? Just a thought? 
Glad to hear you had no breakages this time Hannah.
61 seconds is flying! Would have loved to have seen those!
Discovered I have got a pic of the overturned BMW on my camera. You can just about see it in the centre of the picture.
