For context, Wales recently reduced it's 'default' speed limit down to 20mph.

This is so dumb, it sounds like an attempt at making the speedlimits look like a bad thing. Obviously you can just make exceptions for a race like this. Its gonna be blocked off anyways so its not a public road at that point. Exceptions to standard rules are completely normal for events like this, i dont see why this would be any different.
