The joys of Mr E's short sighted money grabbing approach to F1, and the difference to milking a sport for all its worth and trying to build the same sport.

I agree. I believe that the proposed demonstration in London is to promote F1 in general, not to simply sell more Silverstone tickets (which isn't needed. It'll also (maybe?) encourage more people to watch the British GP on TV too if they 'see the cars live' in London, which should be good for the spot, and good for the sponsors.
