There's a nice little nerdy fact attached to the race, but I won't spoiler it.

Thank you appreciate it

Well I feel that was a bit of a faff

Hopefully this weekend made up for it!

Talking about next year's Silverstone WEC.

And if I get asked to judge or steward, I will, of necessity, be at Stoneleigh. (Supreme = cat version of Crufts)

ah I see, my mistake, I suspect the ticket pricing will be alot more F1 like, than what people remember for WEC races of old.

Tickets go on sale on Tuesday. We'll find out then, I guess. Tickets for the BTCC last year were £50, so I rather suspect these'll be somewhat north of that, unfortunately.

I had an early bird email offer from Silverstone when they announced the meeting last week - the full 3 day weekend ticket set me back £95, individual days were Friday £35, Saturday £50, Sunday £70. Expect something similar or a little bit higher when they go on general sale on Tuesday.

For comparison, the ELMS 4hr race (LMP2, LMP3 & GT3s) ticket for September was £35 for the weekend while the BTCC will set you back £60 for the weekend now.
