Saturday - The Race Build-up Warm up between 0900 and 0945 saw Tomas Enge in 007 set the second fastest time in GT1 behind the 64 Corvette on a damp track. From 1200 the cars are traditionally rolled out onto the pre-grid formation - best described as in 'ear-of-corn' formation along the pit wall. As is also traditional, the Hawaiian Tropic girls are also in attendance. |

By around 14.00 the cars circulate slowly for one lap and then form the grid. With a strong possibility of rain at the start of the race, David Richards looks to the sky and wet tyres are arraigned around the cars just in case - but they are not needed. 14.52, the green flag is shown and the cars begin their formation lap. This is scheduled to take 8 minutes by which time the cars at the head of the grid will pass the start/finish line at 15.00 precisely. |
