Spectators will NOT be permitted at our May events.
Unfortunately, we will not be able to accept spectators at our May events. There was a great deal of discussion at our committee meeting yesterday on ways we could make the spectator return to the hill for the May events possible.
Both events are closed to the public so please do not attempt to gain access to the hill during the weekend, our security staff will turn you away.
Sadly, we have to comply, not just with the UK Government’s regulations and guidance but with our governing body, Motorsport UK’s regulations and guidance which are at times significantly different. Finding solutions that comply with the regulations and guidance of both bodies is somewhat complex.
Needless to say, we are working on solutions that comply with these so that we will able to invite spectators back very soon.
We will update you here and on our social media as soon as we are able, watch this space.
