Breaking: Redcar's first meeting of the season abandoned due to weather
The Easter Monday race meeting at Redcar has been abandoned because of the weather.
A statement released after an 11am inspection today says: "We are very sorry to inform you that unfortunately our Easter Monday, 2nd April raceday has been abandoned. The weather this Spring has been awful with snow and rain, and very few dry, sunny days. The rain has been relentless recently and consequently we are unable to race on the track."
Redcar's next meeting is scheduled for April 16.
