GCCheddaris should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
Thruxton's Easter Monday International Formula Two meeting was televised from the mid seventies to the demise of the Formula Two championship in 1984 . From memory the Formula Two , Formula Three and Touring Car races were televised ( I didn't see them as I was always at the meeting ) .

Thruxton also held a non-championship Formula Three meeting in November which was shown on Grandstand in between horse races . Ayrton Senna made a winning F3 race debut in the 1982 race .

I think the Formula Three championship was shown on Grandstand ( highlights the week after ) from the mid eighties through to the early nineties when Touring Car racing started to take over .

Also in the mid eighties Grandstand showed a winter series Formula Ford 2000 championship . However where you might find these races I'm not sure , but there were some Special GT races from the Thruxton November meetings on YouTube .
