They made the track using a new track barrier system. It's a lot less destructive than the previous system. It also means that the layout is now permanent.

So yes the local drivers will have a lot of mileage on the track, but the layout isn't as that hard so in about 2 packs you should be able to workout the "need to know" sections of the track. Then its just a matter of getting the setup right en getting a few packs in.

But if the have the entire thursday to practice and part of the friday, you should be OK by then.

It's not that the UK nationals are held on non permanent tracks, so there are also the drivers with home track advantage. It's just a part of racing. And believe me, in the end it will be bigger names in the top 3. Not the local warriors. But I do expect 1 or 2 making the A-main.
