R59 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the gridR59 should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
So will the MSA leave the breathalyzers at home too? I bet that's another thing that will reduce the turnout - the fear of the "Random Test" following Christmas Day celebrations!

If anything, I don't wish to muddy the waters, but competitors should be paid to turn out on Boxing Day, and the event publicised big time, make a celebrity day of it.
Or it could be done for Chaaarity mate! Right? Not 'arf! Say a couple of kids Christmas type charities, and the Motor Racing Safety Fund? - and then the competitors race for free. You'd be surprised how quick the grids would fill up. And how big the crowd would be!

And if you don't try - it will never happen. You don't have to abide by the Homer Simpson rule of "I tried, I failed, the moral is NEVER TRY".
