Not GMT for the race day, though. Furthermore, why Eastern times all of a sudden now as well? For the sake of consistency and equality, if you’re going to add a North American time zone (which hasn’t been the case before), then you should also add, for example, a Far East Asian time zone as well, LOL.

Also, remember the clocks go forward in the UK this Sunday! The Sunday times quoted above are BST, not GMT.
