Shame as I like Rockingham, very challenging circuit would have liked to have raced there especially in the wet.

Got my first race win at Rockingham. It will be a shame, I read that the complete banked circuit has only ever been used twice since it was built.

Shame, been there a few times and we had a fun National there.

It seems while the French are opening tracks all the time were closing them.

It was a brave venture, sad it has ended this way :( Really enjoyed my (experience day) skid training there - not on the track of course.

Wet at Rockingham is great fun as it's so slippy.

Doesn't say which layout it is.

 

I'm at an awards dinner that night.
