PS. I don't mind using the Scoob if we're going 1/3's (or 1/4's) on fuel. A bit more room and some kudos in the car park

I will be going down in mi Terzo with another lad from work so hopefully will see you guys down there and i will meet you all for the first time, but thanks for the offer.
Oh and as for the pit passes, I wish...... Been invited to a Voip conference by Avaya who are a main sponser of Honda F1, hence the location so I doubt I will get any, but I shall apply the charm with anyone i can!

M62E to M1S and off at J.39. Left towards Wakey over 2 (I think) roundabouts and through a set of lights (speedcam 
) and over a flyover you'll get to some lights and pass under a railway bridge. Go straight on to the next small roundabout (50yds) and turn left into the Holmfield car park. I'm sure Al has a map.

Martin, I had to go long way round this morn, Junc 31 was closed + road out of Normy to M way, tuck 25 min normaly 5 mins Bugger late for work agian.
I was in the truck this afternoon.
Blackpool was good, bloody cold but no rain, stayed at the Imperial at north end, upgraded to a suit due to our lass telling them it was her birthday.
There was a WR1 in the car park when we arrived too, nice motor with front and back twin light conversion.

James, PM me your address and I'll pick you up around 5:45 ish.
The rest of you...
It's pretty pointless us two coming to the Holmfield, as we're gonna be doubling back on ourselves. I'll aim to get onto the bridge at M1 J36 for around 6:15 and keep an eye out for you. If someone with my number wants to give me a heads-up as you get there it would be appreciated.

The test provides fans with an ideal opportunity to watch their favourite F1 cars and drivers charging around the track from 09:00 in the morning, through to 17:00 in the evening. Grandstand access* is also free of charge, which is extremely popular with spectators who like to watch all the action from different sections of the circuit, including many of the prime viewing locations that are often sold out when it comes to the Grand Prix itself.
