British Grand Prix at Silverstone - Mike Costigan - 30-06-2022
If anyone is in attendance tomorrow and can take some decent photos of the drivers' parade in Sevens, I am keen to publish a little piece in the next Grey Mag

Oddly, Mike, it is possible to get some half-decent pictures by photographing the TV screen.
The Drivers' Parade is on Sunday 13:00 - 13:30
One Channel 4 live coverage includes

RE: British Grand Prix at Silverstone - JonE - 01-07-2022
so its F1 drivers in Sevens? or just any drivers in parading Sevens? Which would be a bit of a tautology...
they ought to live stream it at Beaulieu somehow...
RE: British Grand Prix at Silverstone - Mike Costigan - 01-07-2022
Yes, Jon, it's the F1 drivers in Sevens! I understand the Seven parade is at lunchtime today, Friday, not the Sunday parade, so it may or may not be televised - not that affects me, as I don't have a television!
RE: British Grand Prix at Silverstone - Tony Griffiths - 01-07-2022
Thanks, Mike, I'll watch it today and, if it happens, try to get some shots. I'm sure that professional photographers there will also be filming. The race-day parade is usually on the back of a lorry with incisive interviews where drivers all say the same thing, "We'll have to wait and see."

David Howe has just advised me the Austin Seven - 20 cars each carrying one of the F1 drivers - parade is on Sunday at 1pm, so that should be covered by the TV broadcast.
RE: British Grand Prix at Silverstone - Mike Costigan - 01-07-2022
Checking the Channel 4 guide it seems the British Grand Prix coverage doesn't start until 1.30
RE: British Grand Prix at Silverstone - Tony Betts - 01-07-2022
Hi mike,
Dont worry, they might still be televised. As much of the pre race, is showing what's already happened over the weekend. Inc practise, and qualifying.
I heard last week this was going ahead, I take it the midlands club were contacted??? Only a guess.
Let hope they represent all 17 years of manufacture, and although we all love saloons. When they are showing drivers to the crowd, I hope they are all open tops
As suggested above, a live feed to beaulieu would be nice, OH and a big screen TV please.
Tony

Yes - Sunday at 1pm - confirmed by one of those taking part...
They have to be scrutineered at 10am 'at operating temperature' and will be fitted with a nappie if dropping too much oil!!
Edit: a far wider appeal than the Midlands Club.. and open cars, yes..
RE: British Grand Prix at Silverstone - JonE - 01-07-2022
I wonder if they will put Hamilton in the Waterski special. (Or indeed, if the drivers get to choose in any way).
