Inner paddock is about 1% the size mandated by Mr E, so would need enlarging. The only way to do that would be to move the back straight and demolish the existing pits. In order to make the runoff areas be FIA grade 1 standard would require huge earthworks, likely including demolishing the MSV building. Costs aside, it would completely change the track layout and it wouldn't be the Brands Hatch we all know and love afterwards.
I don't believe there's any track in the UK that could take F1 without being butchered. Given what happened to Donington (and the fact we're only just back with an open infield this coming year!) it's highly unlikely any circuit would attempt it.
Apart from the Circuit of Wales, obviously
