Where
to park up your MGV8 and find the V8 Marquee at MGLive! For both longstanding
members familiar with attending the Club's annual weekend MGLive! meeting at Silverstone
Circuit, and for new members maybe visiting for the first time, it can be confusing
as to where to park up your MGV8 and find the V8 Marquee. So this note aims to
provide you with clear information on the layout of the central area for MGLive!
this year which you can download and print off a copy of the DRY layout.
One
matter that affects the layout at MGLive! is wet weather! Underneath the grassed
areas at Silverstone there is a clay layer so if there is heavy rain those grass
areas can very easily become waterlogged as there is no natural drainage - the
only way the grass dries out is by evaporation which takes many days! Because
the Formula 1 Grand Prix is held a matter of weeks after MGLive! the circuit managers
have to ensure the grassed areas are not damaged by cars driving on them when
the grass is waterlogged. Consequently if there is heavy rain there is a risk
the circuit managers will declare the central grass areas off limits and a WET
layout will be imposed. That layout removes the dedicated V8 Parking area
and V8 enthusiasts then have to park in the general MG parking areas which are
tarmac surfaced areas. |
