Andy Blackmore of www.spotterguides.com fame usually releases his as close to the race as possible to ensure 1) accuracy, and 2) that unscrupulous rivals don't get a chance to pinch his artwork. I wait for his to come out then print them off on a colour laser printer at work, they always come out great!

Andy's guides are great - he is a great graphic artist. I laminate my own and make a nice cover.I use Andy's to score off the retirements .

It was something I developed for my friends only initially.
