Red Bull Air Race - wot no Ascot 2017?
 

I was looking forward to another excellent Red Bull Air Race at Ascot this year but it wasn't announced with the other fixtures on 19th January.

Just 2 "Europe tbd " dates 12-13August and 2-3 September.
Ascot has a horse racing fixture 12 August but nothing listed for
2-3 September.

So an alternate UK venue or possibly none at all......?

It would be a shame as from my seat in the Ascot stand on two occasions it has been packed and a terrific event.

Anyone know any venue rumours or care to suggest some to Red Bull?

The Solent off Portsmouth would be good!

Come to Budapest!

"The exhilaration will continue on 01-02 July, as the raceplanes dart under the Chain Bridge in Budapest, Hungary, the spiritual home of the sport."

Easy access & viewing, great weather & so much more!

Thanks for the invite! There will be at least 4 of us, hope you have the room ;-o
I'm going to check EasyJet right now.

Agreed. As Ascot proved it's airspace requirements are quite compact so that would work. Barges with pylons is a tried and tested method too.

Come on Red Bull Air Racing, reveal your plans!

Not last year - it poured down with very strong winds - racing cancelled!

Only on Saturday, race took place Sunday - I was there!

Still no news!
 

What a shame the schedule still isn't announced.
