Those are gorgeous, David. I've been trying to capture a decent wren shot for several millennia, but the quest remains unfulfilled.

Wonderful images Simon.
What lens did you use?
A variety, Naim.

Mark Webber (1), the marshal (4), Nico Hülkenberg (5) and Jenson Button (6) were all taken with a Sigma 100-300 f4. Esteban Gutierrez (2) and Daniel Ricciardo (3) were snapped with a Sigma 10-20mm f4-5.6. And the final two - McLaren 'motorhome' and Kimi Räikkönen - are the fruit of a Pentax 28-70mm f4 that cost £35 on eBay...

Nice shots, Simon. I saw one of these at the Cholmondeley Pageant last year... but persisted with trying to capture it at about 1/20. Unsurprisingly, this didn't work.

A few from last weekend. As Mike Edwards (Droopsnoot) has mentioned in a separate thread, the Donington meeting was marred by a fatal accident on Sunday afternoon. No matter how safe we make the sport, it will never wholly be so.

It's only taken the best part of a week to post these - not helped by pouring Sauvignon Blanc across my laptop and rendering the keyboard hors de combat - but there's just about time to do this before I head to the Donington Historic Festival...

General testing is scheduled every Wednesday at Mallory - cars in the morning, bikes after lunch, as Vic implied - but it's worth checking with the circuit to see whether many riders are booked in. Some days can be very quiet, others extremely hectic. There is a small admission charge - about £3, I believe - but that only applies if there's a bloke on the gate, which isn't always the case...
