your a good one for stating the obivious,
life aint all about WRCs in the national championship some think the Tarmac championship ist the place for those, with out clubmen there would be real point in any form of motorsport so the over hyped boys in the mark chews have a place,
so life not as good for ya Guy since all the WRCs have gone so its no fun when your not snapping fancy wrcs all the time.

Im not into a half driven car of any sort,and ive been to spa so ive seen a F1 at full of the pipe,but i appreciate your lets say constructive critism.

The green areas on the map are "Free spectator viewing" so you should be able to see the cars go by in those areas. I can't justify spending that much on a demonstration myself so will head down early and see if I can get a decent view, even if it's packed and I can't find a decent spot, the sound alone is worth it imo.

i think he is playing with his band there that night. im not 100% sure on that though so it would be worth checking it out first .

Starting off wet in many areas on Sunday, with some further pulses of very heavy rain. Ongoing spot flooding. The rain will tend to pull away southeastwards in the afternoon and evening with drier, brighter conditions extending from the northwest.
