in terms of truck travel, it’s a similar cost/effort for most teams to get to spa as it is to get to knockhill. knockhill can be done for most inside a 9/10 hour drive, but it’s on the edge for anyone south of leicester who happens to hit a bit of traffic.
i’ve never understood the travel poverty plea to dodge knockhill. perhaps cars are more prone to damage but if a team is mission critical over an extra £150 of hgv fuel then they’ve got bigger issues to deal with.
i’d love an extra race at knockhill too. as long as it was in july or something, because i don’t think team kit can cope with anything other than summer up there
