I thought the timetable at Silverstone was a little spread out - just seen the timetable for Brands, qualifying Saturday morning racing Sunday

New version issued yesterday(18th) but still unchanged for 2CV's

Must say I find the timetable quite OK, late start on Sat and lots of time to fiddle with car if something is bad after qualifying, then fair amount of time between race 1 and 2 on the Sunday.

Exactly. Perhaps nothing ever goes wrong for some people christer therefore they don't need so much "tinkering time". I have also heard that some people 'prepare' their car before goint to a circuit, not deal with the issues at the circuit. Wild!

The schedule is also very hungover friendly so it would imho be a shame not to (ab)use the opportunity.

I will take that as a direct attempt at causing panic among the Gadget Team

Derek,
I first went there in 1951 & don't recall it, though I know it was famous for cycle racing before motor bikes and cars. Just
how old are you?
