NEWS FROM ROCKINGHAM: For a second consecutive year Rockingham is delighted to announce a price freeze on adult admission tickets as the Northamptonshire circuit prepares for a bumper season of top-class motor racing.

Rockingham has extended its racing calendar for 2010 and fans will have the opportunity to watch some of the most exciting and exhilarating motor racing action in the UK at last year’s prices.

Rockingham has a summer date with the Cooper Tires British F3 International Series & Avon Tyres British GT Championship, where some of the world’s future Formula 1 stars will be on show at the circuit on July 17/18. Advance adult tickets are on sale for this event and cost £16 (Sunday), £20 (weekend) and £10 (Saturday) respectively.

Rockingham Chairman Len O’Hagan said: “With the addition of extra race meetings this year, we are delighted to announce a bumper race calendar for 2010, which builds on the success of the past few years.

“Once again our calendar offers a diverse range of events from the UK’s premier motor racing series right down to grass roots motorsport. Coupled with the price freeze on adult admission tickets, race weekends at Rockingham provide great value for a fantastic family day out.”

During each race weekend there will be plenty of opportunity to get close to the racing action with an open paddock and free grandstand seats for everyone.

Rockingham prides itself as being one of the most family-friendly motor racing venues and the circuit is delighted to continue to offer free admission for all children aged 15-years-old and under (maximum two child tickets per one paying adult).

Season passes for 2010 are also available and will provide holders access to a minimum of 10 race events at Rockingham, including the BTCC, and cost just £115 each. That is a saving of more than 20 per cent.
