Chris Wilson should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
What was this Sports Prototype testing at Mallory this morning please?

Couldn't see it in the paddock, V8 powered, sounded DF*, very rapid. Any idea who was pedalling it? Thank you.

As a guess ... March 75S. Or close relative.

And it may be worth checking the Masters Series entries for Brands Hatch here.

Think that is Mike Wrigley's helmet graphics design, and car his March as suggested by my learned friend above.

These 3D effect helmet designs seem to be required these days. What will happen when they run out of different colours for the chequers?

Back to White everyone?

Thank you, he obviously has it well Mastered, if you'll pardon the pun

Some random photos from this morning, even the ducks came for a gander at some of the exotica.


I had a stinking cold, but it was well worth getting up before 6.00 AM this morning to walk the dogs and facing the M6 traffic to get there before 9.00 AM. Action shots not very good, 20% camera's, 80% photographer's fault.

Brilliant, perhaps they wondered why the nose cone on the Benetton was 'quacked'
