It should be a case of gates open, come on in! A lot of Glicks fans are the kind of young people who hang about on Twitter and play games. To exclude them in such a harsh way seems unwise, and frankly, just mean. And I say this as a Glick fan - I, like I suspect a few others here, have 1:43s of some of their cars.
Totally agreed.

Such a shame that weeks before the big race, and this is what we’re talking about. Suspect Glickenhaus has actually persuaded some people not to bother with the big race, by closing the gates on the largest gateway to the young understanding our sport.

I’m 27, Le Mans obsessed, and the only friends of mine who have a clue what I’m on about have come across it on a games console.
