Is the available paddock space any worse than Knockhill or Croft? |

At least Croft and Knockhill have a full set of garages. Not sure how many Anglesey have if at all

I wouldn’t have known about Anglesey, as it doesn’t host any major races. It’s probably best known for being the Fifth Gear test track

Lots of other schemes exist where organisations have erected plaques, but these are always informal. The blue plaque at Thruxton is fake. It was a joke gift given to BARC by Alan Gow on 2010, and is fixed to the race control building. |

But Anglesey's issue isn't garage space rather the space for a support race paddock and the lack of local infrastructure. |

Croft is approx 35,000m2 and Knockhill and Thruxton both around 20,000m2. Donington Park is approx 48,000m2 |

not sure if you’re including the overflow space at knockhill in that calculation outside the main gate to the left, but if not that’s used sometimes as well. my rusty memory says that if they’re using the long circuit anglesey don’t really have any space of that kind. not sure the sheep will share either

I didn't include any of the grass at Thruxton though, even though it often holds hospitality units which are in the paddock at other locations |
