Formula 1 at Duxford - last day of this year's testing

Last Wednesday saw the final test day this year at Duxford by the Renault team. There were plenty of excited children there, and some excited grown-ups too. The weather was pretty iffy, and the team would have liked to test over two days, as Thursday's forecast looked good, and they had had quite enough wet weather testing earlier in the summer, thanks very much!
But talking to the Renault guys(when they weren't shepherding schoolkids out of the way of a very powerful jet engine on wheels)they are clearly very conscious of the potential annoyance factor for local residents, and they only tested on the one day, rather than running into the Thursday. This would suggest that the team at Duxford, led by Richard Ashcroft and Mick Martin, are getting it right in terms of weighing up the balance between the income stream from the testing and the good relations with the locality. Next thing is to get the views of the environmental health team at South Cambs. Whittlesford Parish Council are going to do a questionnaire for the village.
