It’s that time of year again when there is a small window to speculate a good deal on FoS accommodation…

June 13-14: Le Mans & F1 Canada
June 28: F1 France
July 5: F1 Austria
July 19: F1 Great Britain


Thursday July 9th – Sunday July 12th looks like a fairly safe bet.

Bit poor from Goodwood.

They've just moved the MM date and are dealing with the fall out from that, seems odd that they'd move that now, rather than wait a couple of weeks for the official official confirmation.

Yes, but to be fair Goodwood can't win.
They either delay the announcement of the move until after the F1 is absolutely confirmed, or take a best guess which is probably okay.

I am in the middle of rearranging accomodation for 78MM. As of this morning I have now got hotels booked for both weekends - fortunately I booked it on a refundable basis. I can't however take advantage of the early booking discount so it has cost me more money. I will cancel the original one once I am sure I won't have to reverse the process again.
