Just a heads up for any one planning on using the A43 Sunday, it is Moto GP at Silverstone, there are signs up saying expect delays, so may be worth leaving a little earlier in the morning to miss the traffic

Correct decision by the organisers today to call it off because of the rain I think as the standing water was getting worse and effecting more and more peoples electrics.

It didn't benefit me in any way as I only had the one run LOL, but that's racing.

I think the cost to the normal racer in the event of water damage is by far more important so cancelling gets the thumbs up from me

Indeed it can add up when it goes wrong / gets wet.

Also as someone who runs a club. Driver and marshal safety..

Chucking it down in Southampton with some very big puddles.
