I watched it, I thought it was rubbish, lots of sponsorship stuff to be followed exactly due to contracts (when Schuy changed cars they had to tape up all the other drivers sponsors!) and a very very small crowd, and how on earth can they do that to the football pitch

 

I also thought the cars were boring, can imagine the drivers got paid a fortune though

Isn't the original pitch supposed to be preserved under aluminium sheets? They put the tarmac and turf on top of that so it could be pulled up afterwards and the pitch brought back to life.

 

I guess the lack of light can't help the grass much though.

I was there too, very good day out I thought, lots of racing to watch.

 

Only downers was the cold weather and poor turn out, which made it annoying as the presenters were trying too hard to get a real atmosphere going.

 

Great mix of cars and stars.

 

I have a feeling they'll be totally replacing that pitch ready for next years sporting events.

For a national stadium the pitch was a disgrace for the last England match, so it needed ripping up!!
