That's actually what caused us the issue, if we hadn't walked around we'd probably have made it out easier. We were at the top of the camping field and decided (following getting stuck in the queue last year) that we would be better off watching the presentations and then having a stroll. After that we made our way back to the van and decided to exit through the paddock (one of the marshals had said that it was possible), at which point we got well and truly stuck. If we'd actually just hopped straight in the van then we'd probably have been out the gate before many people got to their cars.

I really can't understand the people that were leaving during the semi-finals though, I'd rather wait in 2 hours of traffic than miss out on the racing!

Photos nothing in comparison to yours (not helped by me only shooting on Saturday morning during practice...at which point it was all cloudy). Still doing the organising/editing phase but reasonably happy with this one, just a shame about the dust kicked up by the car in front
