The wind was a bugger all day long. It kept blowing my tripod over. When i was panning the wind would catch my tripod and ruin my shot., but problems are very small too this guys!! A tree fell and landed on his Audi A4 He had just got out of the car and taken a couple of steps away then BANG!!!!! I didnt see it but i got told about it!

Ouch!!
It was very windy at Donington too. I didn't see it, but my brother said that an umbrella got blown across the track, whilst one of the races was going on.

That would have increased air resistance for one of the racers
