I wouldn't be surprised if having people to 'man the stands' is a requirement of their insurance cover. What surprised me was the stands they chose to have open, e.g Becketts being open on Saturday but not Sunday.
I wouldn't say it left a sour taste, there was still a good amount of track action over the weekend, made it tricky to decide when to do the 'non-track' stuff like wandering the paddock etc. The main down time was yesterday after the Porsche race, but that was a perfect time to head back and drop the tent.
In amongst all the comments on getting less value for money on the 4hr race, I'm surprised more people don't mention the very expensive camping, especially with a number of the showers not working and toilets not being kept overly clean (in particular the 's**t explosion' cubicle yesterday morning
