WAS a fantastic event, until they stuck all them silly bloody hay bales everywhere stopping you from actually seeing anything! I had press photo passes the first year. Now that was great!

Still I would like to see the rally stage...........

320,000 people. More than the Grand Prix, not surprising though seeing as F1 is basically a bit pooh.

Now, THAT is a motor race worth going to. Never bothered going to an F1 Grand Prix again after going to Le Mans for the first time a few years ago. Absolutely no comparison whatsoever in terms of excitement and atmosphere. Aston Martin DBR9's at 200mph on the Mulsanne at night Quite agree with you about F1, Andy. What an utter load of drivel headed by that jumped up twat-like dwarf, Bernie Ecclestone
