I'll be there as usual, taking my 15-year old daughter for the first time. As well as my privileged access passes, have also managed to blag two grandstand tickets at Vale.

Weather looks dry so just going to check the odds on Di Resta being highest-placed British driver...

Clearly someone was using the Dark side of the force with the Pirelli tyres yesterday! Perhaps Pirelli P600 tyres were used by mistake!
