    I imagine the Motorsport News Circuit Championship will run over the Winter as booked, unless the Covid situation deteriorates greatly. In which case it won't be the only sport to have to stop again. Starts in November, I imagine it'll be even more popular than normal!

    On the AR podcast, single-venue gravel events with the likes of Greystoke, Walters Arena & Sweet Lamb were mooted as a possiblity for a championship.

    To be honest, I've always wondered why there wasn't a 'Rally Sprint/Time Trial' series using those venues. Walters has loads of roads in there, you could possibly run a 2 day event in there, using different layouts.

    Is there a better sound than that of Porsche engined Flat-6 ???

    That'd be great, make the most of the situation.

    Who owns Llandegla nowadays? It'd be nice to see a single venue return there. Going by the website it looks like it could be owned by a 'Oneplanet Adventure' now, rather than Tilhill, or are they just tenants?

    Have just read that article; lots of good points, and highlights the complete shambles that the guidelines are. Go shopping, go to a pub/restaurant - all indoors = okay. But can't allow groups of people outside in the open air to take part in some sports, or to spectate.

    A 4X4 event is allowed, because it's classed as 'Elite'. Who decides these things?

    The power of having an organised promoter, compared to the rudderless, Captainless ship that is rallying?
