81MM timetable

Action on the Motor Circuit opens on Saturday morning with a dynamic demonstration of Alpine’s latest sportscars before the Sidecars take to the track for the first time at 09:30 for their first practice session before the Sidecar Shootout.

Over the course of Saturday morning, there will be a variety of machines on track, from the bikes of the Hailwood Trophy to the Edwardian monsters of the S.F. Edge Trophy, as they all take part in their respective Official Practice sessions.

You’ll want a good vantage point to catch a glimpse of the Gordon Murray Automotive (GMA) demonstration at 11:50, the details of which we’ll be able to reveal in the lead-up to the event. That’s followed by the Ford Mustangs of the Ken Miles Cup at 12:35 before we put fingers in our ears for the monstrous Can-Am demonstration at 13:40.

We’ll then have Official Practice for the Graham Hill and Surtees Trophies before the next demonstration will see Niki Lauda’s final F1 car, the McLaren MP4/2B, take to the Motor Circuit at 15:05 in celebration of his third F1 world championship triumph 40 years ago.

We then hop from one Austrian legend to another, as Gerhard Berger returns to the cockpit of his 1989 Ferrari 640 for a spin around the Motor Circuit in what is sure to be an exhilarating moment as we listen to that 3.5-litre V12 sing.

The first race of the weekend gets underway at 16:45 with Part 1 of the Hailwood Trophy. That’s followed by the inaugural Sidecar Shootout at 17:10 before the day of track action comes to an end with the S.F. Edge Trophy Part 1 and the Gordon Spice Trophy.

Sunday is a day filled with racing action that begins with the Parnell Cup at 09:00. The Derek Bell Cup follows at 09:40 before the Sidecars return at 11:00 for the Shootout-Knockout. The flag drops for the Surtees Trophy at 11:50 before the GMA cars return for another spin at 12:25.

The sustainably-fuelled Ken Miles Cup begins at 12:55 ahead of the second Can-Am demonstration of the weekend. Sunday afternoon is packed, with the S.F. Edge, Graham Hill and Grover-Williams Trophies, interspersed with second appearances for both the Niki Lauda celebration and the Gerhard Berger moment.

The Sidecar Shootout final kicks off at 16:55 for what is bound to be a thrilling climax, before the 81st Members’ Meeting comes to an end with the Peter Collins Trophy at 17:35 and finally the Gordon Spice Sprint at 18:20.
