Personally, I would not have minded to pay something, but 40 pounds was a bit rich, even if they had to bring in and install a generator unit
for that money i can run my genny all weekend
I think the availability of power in some parts of the paddock was mentioned last year, but £40 to connect is verging on extortion.... Another good reason to only visit the place once a year (or less), and with van and trailer only!

Yes, that was awkward for you all, having to drive down a live pit lane during the race before. I did wave from the pitwall as you went past making two-stroke noises- the car, not you.....
