Just got my email from the RC. Sat to be run as Brands/Mallory, then a non-championship race on the Sunday (the Sun grid based upon Race 1 finishing positions).

Makes Sun a bit pointless, but a bit of fun none the less.

It means I can come home a day early.

Only a bit pointless. I was expecting one Sat and two champ on Sunday. Why isn't there any dialogue.

Exactly what Anna and I were thinking.

I agree with Phil. Something like this should have been at the very least discussed/debated.
Some people may have made arrangements which prevented them from racing on the Saturday now they will miss out on points.

Could be a first with no starters on the Sunday grid.

If it ain't broke, etc

There was only ever going to be one race on Sunday, so you would HAVE to do Saturday for quallifying and at least one championship race,
A lot of YOU whinged about having race one as a quallifier, while others whinged about having 3 long races that would stress their engines

The rules at the start of the season say there are two point scoring races per round,

To Me Anglesey is a long way to go for just one day so to have a extra practice and an extra race for a extra £35 makes the trip more worthwhile

Sometimes I wonder why I bother

[bradders]

think this is a good solution for all the options put forward

have thought about whether to come home sunday morning and not race, still thinking about it as I reckon I face a 7hr drive towing the trailer, but as Skids says you gotta pay anyway so I'll be treating it as a practice session/fast trackday. Practice practice practice for me-----and I can pack everythuing up before so bike in and gone early pm with luck

Suits me racing on the Sat , will have a blast Sat night then some fun on Sunday, bit of knee down posing for the camera then plenty of time to pack up and go.
Even BSB/WSB dont do 3 races. Would be knackerd and sore doing a Fri/Sat/Sun.

A race is a race who cares about points !
