I see that in F they are very happy to announce that schools remain open, in spite of some closures, and wish the teachers to have a jab asap…
As you said, Andy, ALL politicians. |

Albi, 9/11 April to be held on schedule, behind closed doors. Competitors with confirmed entry will receive a derogatory attestation to cross the country to this destination whatever their location. Dated two days ago. Puzzling.

Whether those drivers feel they could justify what they are doing to police if stopped on the way to/from the test session is another matter really. For dispensation for racing abroad the definition of elite comes in? Essentially I think they're saying for motorsport this is someone with an International licence doing an internationally recognised event. (just my understanding!) |

I think you can travel with the elite sportsman tag if it’s a FIA event like Monaco Historics. It’s a nonsense but that’s the way it is.
I am thinking about organising soap box derby in Benidorm to see if that works as an access to Europe. I understand your point Will but all businesses be it specific race/series organisers or meeting promotors schools tell their customers what’s happening or report what are the realistic chances of races happening It seems to be give us your dosh and then we will see what happens Had two letters asking for dosh today |

I have t entered the CSCC meeting at Oulton on 10 April because I don’t think I should travel and stay overnight. MSVR say I can. In contrast Northamptonshire County Council appear to have told Silverstone that they can’t allow overnight stays until after 12 April.
I think that BARC and BRSCC have both postponed some meetings until after 12 April. It’s a mess, and the fact that we are having this discussion but none of us can point to definitive rules shows what a farce it is! |

I think these series also understand that people are reluctant to hand over the dosh. The question is, for the punter wanting to join these series asking for the dosh, if you don't hand over the dosh and get your name on the grid in the unlikely event the race does happen will it be full or not. If it's going to be full and you won't be able to get in, worth handing it over, if it's not then wait and see. |

It’s the superiority complex some in the Historic world have!
Comes from the breading! |

I started racing with BARC and 750 M/C back in the 70's. Happy days for sure.Moved into Historic Motorsport after Radicals and running Formula Renault cars,Historic Racing is way to expensive now for the likes of me and the bloke on the street. I've renewed my BARC membership this year.
When we had Colin's E Type for sale wealthy punters would come along and tell me how great they are and what racing they had done. My mate was with me at the time and he said why dont you tell them what you have done in racing but I cant be bothered. My reply was also that they did not realize that this mate was the bloke that designed the most successful F1 car ever. I suppose I should not complain as it keeps me busy. |

No idea but they must have a lot of merch to get rid of so presumably it’s the 2120 race!
It’s the money! |
