Donington ELMS

[Gamla Hairpin]

After many years of spectating at venues all around the country I think I've finally gone mad...Why have I bought a weekend ticket in advance (£30 plus booking fee) to watch 13 cars circulate for 6 hours on Sunday?? The LMP2 cars will be a spectacle but the novelty will quickly wear off. I fully admit to knowing full well what I've let myself in for and, as someone who has nothing else better to do it will be a way of occupying the day, but this surely must be on the verge of being one of the most unwatchable events ever in the UK.
When bad races/meetings happen you say to yourself, "well I've seen worse" and move on but I reckon I'll have seen the worst by Sunday evening.
I hope to be proved wrong and it turns out to be a great race, but this is a race that should have either been cancelled, reduced in length or spectators let in for free.
