Formula One cars to come to London Top teams prepare to take to the capital's streets The centre of London will reverberate to the sound of Formula One cars next month when eight of the teams take part in a demonstration run in the build-up to the British Grand Prix. The run, along Londons famous Regent Street in the heart of the West End, will take place on Tuesday July 6, between 1800 and 2000 local time (1700 and 1900 GMT). The teams expected to participate are BAR, Williams, Ferrari, Jaguar, Jordan, McLaren, Minardi and Toyota. Huge crowds are expected for the free event, which will obviously necessitate the closure of Regent Street and surrounding roads to normal traffic. Given the close proximity of the Formula One cars, spectators, especially children, are advised to bring ear protectors. The shops on Regent Street will be staying open late on the evening of the demonstration run and all proceeds from the event will go to the arts in Londons Westminster district. The British Grand Prix takes place at Silverstone on July 11.
thnx for offer, m8.Traffic will be mega if roads are being closed off. I'll prob get Tube as i'm in City anyway.
Stig Will be at the Kent meet on the 1st, having missed the last two. Will bring Fcar (or maybe the P100, no I am not Tea arse) what ever the weather. Any Kent FOC doing Bedford trackday on 8th July. We are booked in, places still available, apparently due to noise limit worries. Chris G
See you all there. If you say the weathers going to be **** Stig then everybody bring sun cream. Andy.
Just got ground clearance from the missus to come up and watch the brum brums on Regent street next Tuesday. After, are we all gonna pile round to the London FOC gathering?
Was going to get to London early and pick a spot.After the event was going to go to the London meet.Should we arrange a place where we can all meet up and watch the action? Daz
I'll be in City anyway. I think Tifosi12[Andreas] is over in UK so will invite him to come along with us.
Stig, I'm off that day, so I thought I'll do some shopping then pick my spot.Probably be in London for the better part of the day. Daz
Below the Grand Prix cafe is Rosie's bar where the London FOC will be gathering afterwards at 8.00 pm onwards. I will be there then. As for beforehand with the roads being closed off at 10.00 am it will be LT for me and so I can't promise to get there early enough to meet up. Izza
Joe, first you tell us that you new car is coming early, then you don't turn up at the pub. You are a bluddy tease, you are!
