[QUOTE=ascarracinguk;3973951]Ummmm how would running the event without spectators mean that you are an unwelcome inconvenience?

/QUOTE]


That's obvious surely , if I cannot attend in person - especially as I have already paid to do so. Events like the Classic aren't staged , nor do drivers race, to keep people in work ,that is incidental . And holding a spectator free event would involve massive cuts in employment opportunity for others in any case , so let;'s not get too precious about preserving jobs eh ?



No Classic would have taken place without the massive income from spectator attendance .



I may not be alone, however, in having attended events where grid sizes led me to believe that the drivers had been prevented from turning up.
