Plus side is that the diet looks really good. Proper dirt not tarmac.

Maybe they will have a British round early next year to test the track? ,
I've edited the image to add what I think is the tarmaccy bit in red - so agreed, not a huge amount. Does anyone know in which direction the circuit will be run? I was trying to work out where the start line would be - the only place that makes sense is alongside what is laughably called the pit wall at Stowe (shown in yellow) - that'd give a short run to a tight first corner though (so lots of accidents). Also - where would the paddock be? The unused tarmac beyond what I'm assuming is the start wouldn't be big enough surely?
