truthfully I feel for the dealers on this; they will have to tow party line...good value...event to be at...etc etc and yet if I was one of them I'd be thinking where do my non-new ducati owners sit in all this?!

I look forward to seeing all the pics of the full grandstands....

According to DuN:

The weekend’s event will be laid out as follows for the Riders, and trade stands in the paddock and talks available to everyone with a ticket.



• Day 1 – Saturday 21 May

• This day has been split into 2 styles your customer can choose either:

• TRAINING

Or

• TRACK DAY

• TRAINING will be offered under the tutelage of The California Superbike School. The day will begin on the National circuit and will then switch to the new International circuit after lunch to continue.

• The Training day consists of 3 classroom sessions and 5 track sessions assisted on track by CSS Coaches. The focus of this training format is to work on areas such as Entry Speed, Throttle Control and Steering Input making a smoother rider and to ensure your customer gets the most from their Ducati

• Limited to 90 spaces (3 groups of 30)

• TRACKDAY will begin on the ‘International’ circuit running out of the all new Silverstone ‘Wing’ pits. Please note: Registration and welcome will still take place at the National Pit Garages

• They will be split into one of 3 groups dependant on ability and preference at time of booking: Novice, Intermediate and Expert (subject to availability)

• If they wish is to dial themselves in ready for the GP circuit on Sunday then we can help then do this. We have on-track instructors who can help for a session and we will also be changing over after lunch to the National circuit.

• Limited to 150 riders (3 groups of 50)

• We are running 2 tracks, on the Saturday, the National and the new International track (previously called Southern) so we can swap over at lunch time allowing all Riders to learn the full Moto GP circuit (minus 2 corners) in smaller manageable chunks.



We may not be able to satisfy all requests for Training as limited in numbers to keep Coach to Pupil ratio favourable



• Day 2 – Sunday 22 May will be all 240 riders (3 groups of 80) on the full Moto GP circuit. Run from the National Pit Garages

• They will be split into one of 3 groups dependant on ability and preference at time of booking: Novice, Intermediate and Expert (subject to availability)

• We have on-track instructors from California Superbike School who can help your customer for a session and we will also be offering expert advice from instructors in the pits so they can come and have a chat at any time!



Parade Lap 1-2pm (time subject to change) 2 or 3 laps of full circuit with controlled speed and safety cars. We are aiming to break a World Record for the most Ducati on track at one time.... this will be a sight to be seen (and heard!) . All those with a Rider ticket will also have to note if they want to take part in Parade Lap on the Booking Form as we need to run additional Health and Safety checks for this event
