Going to Silverstone this weekend?

If you are then, to a degree, I hope that the weather stays fine; Silverstone can be a bit bleak and miserable in the wet.

For the rest of us, a wet/dry race so typical of that part of Northants could be pretty exiting.

Either way we have a new Silverstone to play with and the modified track looks great, with all of the old great corners plus some new stuff. An old RAF bomber base may not sound like a classic GP circuit, but Silverstone earned its place as one of the great places to let an F1 car loose, but it has adapted over the years and is a much better venue than some of the plastic slot car tracks that Bernie & Co have inflicted on us.

Roll on the action!
