May I advise the teams to bring at least one reliable stop watch for Saturday's 111 Mile Drive?

Looks like Tulip Rally style directions. Once you have gone wrong, you are really in trouble, so a SatNav is useful for when you have given up but still need to get back to the hotel for a drink and dinner!

I hope that there is a map version of the route to follow as well for those that do not enjoy navigating.
Anne Marie is a terrible navigator and she certainly does not enjoy doing it. I would prefer a trip that can be programmed in the TomTom and enjoy the things I can see around me.

Cheers,

Kees, no real problem there, just follow someone else and let them do the navigating for you from the car in front. When they get lost and you follow, just pretend you were navigating all along and must have made the same mistake too!
