Well unfortunately I couldn't make it to Rockingham yesterday and from the outside looking in it seems as if a lot of the problems could have been avoided with firmer management.
The one thing I would have thought was that perhaps the track day should have been split in two and run before and after the start of racing.
One question if anyone can help how many Red Arrows did the fly by, they overflew Santa Pod but I am sure there were only seven five in an arrow head and then two behind one inverted. I thought I might see them but they veered towards the venue rather than the flightpath I would have expected.

i'm going to make an assumption here and that is that a few representative fiesta drivers were NOT taken round the circuit to show them how wet it was and why it was felt BY THE OFFICIALS to be unsafe. the representatives could then have reported back to the rest and let them make a decision with the proviso that if a safety car was called out then the race would end there and then.
i sympathise with the fiesta drivers but they did get a race on saturday so it wasn't a completely wasted weekend.
here's hoping that rockingham take note of where these water traps are and (being owned by a construction firm that will annually hold a construction industry show on site) will be able to remedy the problem asap. it wouldn't hurt their credentials any.
ps how much water was in the proper lake as it always appears to be empty when i go.
pps i hope the tv crew were able to get enough pickup footage for it still to be aired, i'm missing seeing them in the flesh.Hear the thunder, feel the power.

Mmmmm, just going through my photos - have quite a number with the Fiesta drivers on track during this incident. Am beginning to wonder whether anyone may wish to find them useful...

I saw Ian Brown after talking to the Fiesta drivers and he looked like he'd rather be somewhere else! I think if the Fiesta drivers didn't protest, or atleast not protest on track, the end of the day would have been better.
Just wondering which of the two officials that talked to the fiesta drivers was Ian Brown,the larger or the smaller of the two?Roll on the 2009 Daytona 500!!!!!!
