morninggents should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I think nearly all UK Grands Prix were held on Saturdays up until the early 1980s.
Similarly all league soccer matches, rugby, horse racing, first class cricket, etc. were also held on Saturdays and virtually never on Sundays. Come to think of it shops and supermarkets didn't open on Sundays - only news agents, sweet sops and (some) petrol stations.
All changed in the late 70s/early 80s.
