What a mess.

If they can't even run the GP during the interim period at a pre-existing track, then what hope does this whole white elephant project really have?

Simply put, boycott the whole shambles.

If Dorna are going to sell to the highest bidder withotu doing the right checks, they do not deserve the cash, and this country does not deserve a GP for being such utter cretins about the whole thing.

I for one woulld not be at all sad to lose the round.

It was priced out of my pocket years ago, you get very little for your money in real terms, and at Silverstone you cant see anything, have to pay to park your car and pay a premium for it. Donington were planning the same kind of deal so no doubt were not selling tnes of thousands of tickets either.
Sad thing is, people were going in their thousands, so you cant blame the tracks.

Would rather go somewhere like Turkey, beter track, more interesting. Could probably go there for about the same price for three dyas as one inthe UK

It's now going to be at Silverstone on the same date apparently. Renault have moved their meeting to accommodate and are going to have their WSR date on 6 Sept instead. What club does that cock up and what are the other knock on effects?

Donington probably has a free slot the week before ...

And one in June when the track was due to be re-surfaced.

ETA: Seems Sept 5th was MSVR and 5th was TRAX (whatever that is)
