All sounds very ominous really.

I thought in reality Hockenheim was not a very safe track, and in fact the improvements have made the circui at least more compact. And to be honest, the track basically ran into the forest and back again, totally surrounded by trees! If the greens had their way Andy the track would not be there at all!

The same thing happened in reality at Zeltweg, Assen (utter disgrace) and to some extent Silverstone. It's called progress and at Hockenheim the packaging is better as are the logistics of running events in a smaller space.

Racing is crap, but who cares about that eh, certainly not bigwigs.

So let me get this straight, the German government has invested loads of money into the Nurburgring, and have now got control of the way it is run?

And reading btween the lines they want to close it as it is unsafe or costs too much ro run? Is that it?
