News of the Race Retro event cancellation reached Iconic Auctioneers at 5pm on Monday 19th. The statement from Race Retro said: “It is with great sadness Clarion Events Ltd and Stoneleigh Park announces the cancellation of this year’s highly anticipated Race Retro event. Following extensive discussions and in consultation with the Warwickshire District Council Safety Advisory Group and Warwickshire Police, it has been determined that adverse weather conditions, particularly extensive flooding, rain forecast through to the weekend and road closures render it unsafe to proceed with the event as scheduled.”
