Well footballers in the EPL have returned to training and now they are looking to do games at neutral grounds. As well as having 5 substitutes used per game instead of 3

The change in substitute rule is a temporary amendment to the rules of competitive football. Does motorsport need any amendments to the rules that are in place for all competition? (If such a thing even exists). For me, the resumption of motorsport will be determined by the scale of event, compared to local government regulations (local to that country, not 'local government'). Certain series-specific regulations might be amended. |

As to racing at the moment we should be allowed to have meetings from 1st August under conditions one being they must not bring more than 5000 people. No change in regulations allowed before end of 2021 if my reading is correct.

Without wishing to pre-empt the PM's address to the nation (caveat!) but going on what the press has got so far, I can't see any hope of events like Revival, FoS or Silverstone Classic going ahead this year in their current form, with large crowds - which presumably means not at all.
The new guidance apparently is going to be - stay at home as much as possible - work from home if possible - limit contact with other people. Bearing in mind we are nearing the middle of May, are we going to see this dramatically change for events that accommodate 30,000 or 40,000 people converging from all over the UK to attend - in a little over 10 weeks? |

Sadly I agree with you. I can’t see events like the Revival or the Fos going ahead. Great events they are, I think the major national and international championships will be a the big priority. They’ll be seen as more important in the grander scheme of things Also events like the FoS were made for the public and it’s hardly worth it if you can’t have many spectators there. Also it would be a job to get drivers and teams from any series there. They wouldn’t want to risk their health just for a public appearance. They would be much more focussed on getting their championship done |

There is a financial incentive for events that have sold entries and tickets to make something happen - otherwise they may have to make a refund or carry a credit over to next season. Goodwood has an oven-ready(!) event in the form of the postponed Members' Meeting. Let's hope they can be clever and creative with the technology and do something at Revival, even if it's not what it was in previous years

I cannot see the ticket sales at levels to be viable and I can't see entrants venturing out in the numbers to make that side work |

The point is that in some cases the income has already been received - so the question is what, if anything, can the event organiser sensibly, safely and fairly offer to avoid giving it all back

At the very least, everything will be postponed until next year. 2020 is a total washout.

From what I have seen from the govt doc so far, looks like sport behind closed doors only and for broadcast, so that is no SC, Goodwood Revival or FoS in it's current form. But BGP likely to go ahead as a closed event.

SC will be waiting on Motorsport UK to cancel the permit, who will be waiting on government advice to do so. |

The sentence in point says - 'Permitting cultural and sporting events to take place behind closed-doors for broadcast, while avoiding the risk of large-scale social contact.' They clearly have large public-interest events in mind, but they dont' give a scale of event and it reads as though club events would also be permitted, even if no-one is watching the broadcast. |

It was the “broadcast” bit of the definition I was referring to.
