    Apparently it's version 1 and they've made it so early as to be able to take advice from the drivers on how to change it. I suspect that the jump will be smaller (looks like GRX style to me) and a fast corner on loose will be added. Not sure how far spectators will be away from the track, to me it looks like there aren't many options for good viewing.

    Bakkerud did a nice video on his Youtube channel about Lydden, it seems that it's genuinely close to his heart. I guess that the drivers are worried that they're losing the fast circuits and having them replaced by tracks that are shoehorned into an existing layout. Silverstone is a perfect example and I think that they're going to find themselves getting new fans but will lose a reasonable number of existing fans. After all one of the great things about Lydden is that it's accessible for European fans...Silverstone isn't even that accessible for British fans

    However it's clear that Lydden lacks facilities, although I think that this year went better than previously and they seemed better prepared. Personally I'd rather slightly rough it and have a good, exciting track with good viewing than have decent facilities but a neutered track that's in the distance.

    Early bird tickets available for Speedmachine Festival...http://www.speedmachine.com/

    It's actually a good deal. You get to watch at a crappy circuit, sat miles away from the track and it's the bargain price of £140 for a weekend camping ticket Of course if you're not camping then it's even cheaper, a mere £95 (£60 for kids). Naturally they can only offer such cheap tickets as an Early Bird, so better snap them up

    While tactically one can understand why Bakkerud did what he did he does certainly not get much sympathy. Before the semi he even goes to give Solberg a hug while he is being interview like BFF...
