I have yet to see anything published about CBW 2023, normally there would be something, even if only a holding post / page.

I am wondering if there might be a change of plan, as the parade is so much earlier in the day this year.

Has anyone else seen anything?

Try https://www.classicbw.org

I've a feeling that this years theme is something odd, like Ferrari or Audi, but I can't track it down

Have a feeling that's just copy/paste from previous years, given it has cars leaving to be part of the driver's parade at 16:45. The Driver's Parade that's scheduled from 14:00 to 16:30 this year.

The information is what we anticiapted from previous years and how the organisers thought it would continue until the change of timing for the drivers parade, i will be attending the partners dinner in early February where the marque for this year and the progrramme will be announced.

As a company we sponsor the programme which is distributed at the event so need the full information as soon as possible.

I will add this to the website and post this information on the forum. For clarity I am a Director of Lycian Events Limited and Just Tickets and Motoring Limited .

Pleased to see that my crystal ball is still working, and its Ferrari. I loved their early 1960's cars, that filled the gap between the Aston Martin and GT40 wins, and produced some of the best looking front and rear engined cars.

Presumably, and with our full support, the organisers will be making a big French political fuss as classic cars aren't allowed anywhere near Rouen ranting
