They did look mighty silly, whizzing round the paddock, and tooting their silly horns!

Not TOO bad, much better a couple of years back.  This year it was way too busy, on the Sunday anyway.  Did anyone go on either the Friday or Saturday?

Tried to go on the Saturday. It took one and a half hours to drive down the M1 ( due to roadworks, accidents and traffic) Got off the M1 at Junction 24a and then spent the next two & half hours in a traffic jam not going anywhere. Gave up in the end and went some where else. :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry: :angry:

Why is traffic management for major events in the UK such a joke!

I was stuck on the M1 northbound carpark for about an hour, and then another hour from the motorway to the circuit gates.  Fcuk knows how an emergency vehicle would have got through that lot!

I had my five year old in the back. He was very patient considering.

Mind you how many games of I-Spy can you have when you are stuck on a slip road.
