The Course
The course is planned to run in the opposite direction than in the past. The start area will be in the same place but the finish will be Higher up on the same field as normal. The pits will be behind the Finish area part of the park and the jet wash area will be away from the pits on the football pitch. Please do not cross the course when accessing the jet wash area and give way to other park users.
On the start line listen to the commissaire’s instructions with regards to gridding at the start and ensure that you are in the correct area.
There will be race commentary in the park, and there is a coffee van in the park near the children’s playground.
Looking forward to seeing you Sunday. 2nd October.
