Yes, I thought Verstappen purposefully crashing into Russell was more serious but he got off lightly.
You were just 35 minutes from us - hope the traffic wasnât too bad for you leaving, but the M40 was stationary by J11 at around 3:30pm.
Now utter chaos trying to leave the carpark. Why do venues arrange staff to marshal people in but somehow think that the entire set of users trying to leave simultaneously will somehow âjust workâ?
As far as I can tell the couple of staff here are forcing everyone to turn right, leading to the longest most tortuous route through the country lanes and in direct competition with the shuttle buses bringing people in rather than left which is a short run to the A43
The short run to the A43 may be temporarily one way to manage traffic.
If youâre heading south and need a coffee break before the Bicester turning let me know.

Stunningly generous AM but weâre heading north and currently have 20 minutes to leave if we want to stop at one of our regular Chinese places to pick up a take out for supper.

Enjoy your supper then and safe travels.
Right now itâs 50/50 whether we get there or whether the only choice is McDoâs
My guess that the country lanes would be congested was correct but they forced traffic the longest route resulting in maximum delay.
Well we got to eat our Chinese meal.
The apparently less than optimal route out having been mitigated a bit by Google finding an uncongested route up to the A421 and thence to the A43.

Magny Cours was no better, seems with venues once they have your money they dont really care. Once took 3 hours to get out of the Wembly venue carpark, not been back since
Tried to leave a Genesis gig at Donnington park once - got to the car about midnight, left the grounds about 7am.
Wouldnât go back there for a gig either.
Was so completely knackered realised driving further would be a disaster, pulled off into a lay by and had a kip.
