Second time I have been, first was before the dreaded C word. It’s such a nice relaxed atmosphere, nobody considers them as above anybody else, drivers and crews all willing to chat.

I arrived just after 9 and didn’t leave until gone 6.

So good I’ll probably be back in September

So did I. Watched a full strip and rebuild of Susanne Callin's car, best for access being on the side. Didn't make it until my seat until ~2pm. Didn't feel like a waste though, got to see most classes run at that time.

I didn't have a respirator, but I wish I did when I accidentally stood down wind of a warm up...

eek
