Nicely snapped. My constructive comments on the set is that all pics are snapped from pretty much the same perspective.

how about telephotos head on down the straights or some wide angles from high up or low down?

Or see if you can get in the pits and snap the mechanics and riders getting ready to race, etc

Pics of the crowd?

Agree with Smegy, all the shot's are moving away from you, would be better with some coming toward you.

Thanks for the comments.

Hopefully going to Buxton again on Bank holiday Monday so I'll try and get some different 'angles'.

I stood in the same place all meeting because F1 meetings at Buxton are very well attended and if you move you tend to lose 'your place'.

I also find these images a little flat. They could really do in my eyes with a levels tweak to bring them to life
I've noticed this too with my K7, I much prefer the images I get from my Samsung GX10 and K20D.

Regards, Chris.
