Plenty of options to watch online, if you aren’t lucky enough to to make it.

Have people received their tickets yet? I enquired if there were any still available for either of the first two rounds at Oulton & Donington but have not received any feedback yet.

I was late to the party requesting them so will fully understand if they have all gone.

MSV tend to leave it quite late before posting tickets out, possibly to encourage people to use the print at home option.

Anyone still thinking about attending be aware there will be no tickets available on the day and online sales close at 4pm on Friday.

I’ve just seen a very fresh announcement that BTCC at Donny this weekend will not be allowing spectators, hope the same doesn’t apply to Oulton/BGT frown

I've got tickets for all 3, BGT at Oulton and Donington, and BSB at Dony, I'll be narked if they're forced behind closed doors now, I reckon they're the least risky things I'll do in the next month outside of sitting at home.

They are allowing spectators to club racing but 2m distancing isn’t a big problem there laugh, very different for the big national stuff.

Its not though.

Only pre booked tickets so they set the numbers.

Social distancing in grandstands by blocking off seats and 3 miles of track to spread people around .

No pitwalks or hospitality either.

The MSV plans seem very well done, not clear though if they should have involved the national government all along, or the they've done everything right but the government have intervened in something that should have been decided by other bodies or someone has changed their mind

I have got in everyone who got back to me.

From now on it is going to be more difficult (but hopefully possible)

Cheers

Have to say the branding looks good, Julian.

JB posting plenty on Twitter (not unexpectedly!) which should be getting some attention, given his following.
