Let's hope these improve his lap times;)

The tyres being so wide though, will Blueflag be able to get round you? :boots:

Who's coming from Scotland / north of England?

Glenn and I are talking routes. The best is probably Hull-Rotterdam overnight, leaving Hull Saturday. Off the boat at 8.15am; get to the ring midday Sunday.

Return on Tuesday (not doing the 2nd day) could be ferries Rotterdam-Hull or Amsterdam-Newcastle. Or the full-fat eight hours and 510 miles home via the tunnel!

Landing at Newcastle, virtually on my doorstep would be a nice option if there's any mechanical problems I suppose. Do the boats/tunnel go up much if they're booked on the day?

Yeah I think your right its 2 hours either side but that assuming there are spaces. if you arrive at the "given time" then you guaranteed a space

It means you go in with the coaches, vans etc and don't get put on the upper deck and is wider so less chance of dinging a wheel.
