| Damon Hill has been quoted as saying that in his opinion this is about moving the UK F1 to London streets, - Birmingham City ran a GP or the like a few years ago.
Silverstone has become too much about corporate hospitality as has F1 in general so perhaps Bernie is trying to get a bit more of a buzz back into the sport, - certainly Monaco has it.
On first hearing the news i thought it was a disgrace but actually I now think it is erhaps a ste in the right direction. A pity Dorna don't take a harder line with Donington, - WSBK is trying to with Brands Hatch, - we as race fans get riped off by these circuits on big events, - perhaps we hold up the club racing scene, but i am not convinced, - the maths on an event like Brands WSBK don't add up, - that event takes an enormous profit.
