Chris116 Posted August 28, 2020 Report Share Posted August 28, 2020 (edited) Can I ask exactly where the details of the British Championship being held at Ipswich are? I have looked on the speedwaygb site and also on the Ipswich website and neither make any mention of it and while other places can do good advertising I would have thought that the two I mention should be among the first places for such news to appear.

Just on government proposed listing at the moment - wont appear on SGB or Ipswich sites until full confirmation granted 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RS50 Posted August 29, 2020 Report Share Posted August 29, 2020 Is it likely to be on Eurosport if it happens? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, I thought it would be at BV for this very reason. Easier to police social distancing when it's an all seater stadium. Which I am assuming BV is? At Ipswich most people stand up in groups, like in Sweden? Only going by camera angles on TV meetings!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plus the extra 1000 if they can get the 3rd bend seating opened up....... Also easy to mark the concrete terracing if required - no messy grass banking at Foxhall anymore Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LisaColette Posted August 30, 2020 Report Share Posted August 30, 2020 But people don't stand in the same exact spot usually. Maybe they are going to have some spots marked out like supermarkets had when you had to queue outside during lockdown. Unless they are only opening up the grandstand and that's it?

Well as the normal max capacity is 10-12,000 I'm sure there is no problem whatever they choose to do 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPEEDY69 Posted September 4, 2020 Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 They have held a few stock car events at Foxhall recently so the social distancing stuff should be in place already. Looking forward to it, just hope I'm able to get tickets! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Blue Posted September 4, 2020 Report Share Posted September 4, 2020 Considering Chris Louis said there was a couple of things to sort out and then tickets should be on sale at the end of this week or early next week I would have thought some details of sales would be available by now. I haven't found anything yet, we don't even know the start time. Does anyone know when they are going on sale? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
