Here are some shots I took over the 3 glorious days.

CC welcome, as always. All shot with the 500 F4 handheld (my arms are sore after 3 days!).

Really nice shots, no. 6 particularly conveying the actual speed and energy of an F1 when being driven hard...

I was there on Friday morning but my old cheapo Sigma lens seems to refuse to focus on any moving remotely quickly anymore :-(

Nice set of shots, I'm not surprised your arms sore waving a 500mm f4 I thought my Sigma 120-300 was bad enough :D Does anyone know the significance of the green lights, I know they use red in the wet, does it signify a rookie.

As far as I know Green lights = "Young" driver. Red lights = Race driver.

I remember some teams using blue lights in the wet a few years ago too :)
