Not this old Chestnut again!
Silverstone agreed a deal with the despicable old BE that was never financially viable from the off. Clearly, they feel the vibes coming from Liberty give them an opportunity to "Right a Wrong". I think that is probably the case, but the timing could have been better to say the least.Nobody likes to negotiate with a gun held to their head.
BE is to blame for everything that is evil in this World. Sure he made relatively few people incredibly wealthy but the Sport infinitely poorer.
What's his legacy to the Sport?........Virtually every great race track has gone or been butchered, tedious one make support races, an F1 Paddock that nobody but the privileged few can enter and a weekend ticket price that requires a mortgage. Good luck to any promoter daft enough to try and sell that! Oh yes...and he's got all the TV Rights covered too so no potential income via that route either.
The BRDC should have told him to p... off years ago.
