What was the Cardiff attendance last year?. Are we assuming Cardiff is a non-starter after this year due to being non-cost effective?,. I’m probably out of touch but I thought Cardiff crowd was around 40,000.

Thought it was just over 20,000

No where near.
Absolute maximum of 25k; probably a lot less than 20K paying full price.

Bloody typical, been dry all day, started raining at 6pm fairly steadily, looking at radar it’s going to be here till 7pm :(

it will probably go ahead but will be very wet  track now

Track is so wet now, forecast no better for tomorrow. If it does stop at 7.00 they will need a good hour or more track work but it’s not going to be great :(

Only 15 minutes required to get it raceable, IF it stops raining,  according to Morris... I'll have some of what he's had! Monster, Monster!

This will be off 

Fancy holding it in July in Manchester!

It won’t be off as the forecast tomorrow is no better. 15 minutes is optimistic, I said an hour, they gave Sweden GP 2 hours!

It's whether the weather will hold off long enough tonight, they may start. Let's hope the medic that called off the Sheffield meeting ain't here!

Watching tractors go around the track is marginally more entertaining than watching England play Football at least

Track looks solid to be fair, completely different to Sheffield meeting 

It looks about the same as the Sheffield meeting track to me, after they'd done all the work. See if Jack Holder wants it tonight.
