After going to Monza and seeing how they do it for WSB mate - that was the final nail in the UK MotoGP coffin for me.

Freshly baked ciabatta with parma ham, mozzarella and rocket for 3 euros, or a dogburger and 'chips' for £5.70..I rest my case.

It's tempting. Interestingly that's quite well booked up already. Obviously you're not the only one who would rather be at a track day.

Silverstone National....I'd rather catch up on the decorating, do me ironing and watch MotoGP on the box than go there.

Have to agree with there, WJB. I'll be warm and snug in the motorhome at Donny.

Christ, if the racing is anywhere near as good as in Turkey, who cares how much burgers cost. Who eats those anyway?

i'd love to natty but me and silverstone trackdays just dont seem to mix

i think donny gets a bit too bad a press, yes the burgers and drinks are expensive and the traffic is a problem but you find me another event with over 75000 people all trying to leave at the same time, it allways takes ages. the racing is what matters and the sound of a gp bike is unlike anything else, you can only appreciate it in real life and not on the tele
