Brands Hatch Lesuire PLC did get the contract to hold the British Grand Prix at Brands Hatch and planning permission was granted for the improvements for the circuit. BHL was then purchased by Interpublic under its Octagon brand. The plans were still on until Two Jags called the plans in and Octagon aquired Silverstone. From then on the Brands Hatch plans were dropped and all the Octagon money went to Silverstone and very little work was done at the other 4 venues within the group. The vast majority of the local residents were for the GP coming to Brands.
