Ipswich Consults on Major Foxhall Track Upgrades Ahead of 2027 GP Season
What happened
The chairman of Ipswich, Richard Coleman, announced that the Tru7 Group Witches are consulting on changes to the Foxhall track in preparation for the 2027 season. These planned changes include widening the bends and dropping the apexes to increase the camber, aiming to make the circuit more usable for riders. The club also noted that the current track surface is tired and patchy and requires replacement in several areas.
