Sad news at MG90 that regular BCV8 Championship competitor Joe Parrington had passed away on Friday as he lost his battle with cancer. Joe was desperately trying to make it to Silverstone and at one time was intending to drive himself but eventually he recognised that he would not be strong enough, so handed the drive of his V8 on to his friend Neville Anderson but with his passing that was not to be.

In recognition of his long connection with the BCV8 Championship since 1989 the grid held a two minutes silence prior to the raceat MG90 with 58 drivers standing to respect.
