Those with subsidies from their friendly neighbourhood political systems seem to do OK.

Not that I'd advocate spending taxpayer's (i.e. my) cash on something as ludicrously expensive as a 90 minute TV event for advertisers, mind you.

If the time has come, the time has come. I'd miss* the British GP but I'd miss Silverstone itself one hell of a lot more.

*I'm missing it this year after the FIA wrangled the calendar a few weeks ago, anyway
