I'll be there, of course.  :D

Spa, Le Mans, Monza, Silverstone and Nόrburgring  ;D
I don't care - I'm a racing driver and I'm here to win, not to finish third.

Drinking for Holland will be there with a fair amount of people. At least 10 by the looks of it.
Don't know if we're gonna stay at the camping site, but here's the link anyway>> http://www.camping-am-nuerburgring.de/index.html

If you can't fix it with a hammer, you have an electrical problem.

Are you sure? I've done Frankfurt (a further 100 miles I think) in a fairly consistent 4.5 hours on a Sunday, bit longer coming back during a weekday. Frankfurt was 386 miles from Calais IIRC.

Mappy says it's 295 miles, 4h 35m. http://tinyurl.com/adku9

Some of that is de-restricted of course  :o

Calais - Nurburgring -  roughly 450 km
Calais - Le mans - roughly 500 km

That's using max motorway, which is virtually all the way in each case. So the ring is 4hr 30min at the most.  ;)
Hardly my favourite circuit, though.

This looks difficult, as most of the rest of the team seem to be away, but has to be worth a try, especially as I missed Silverstone.  

How many hours is it from Calais?
