it must be said that a visit to Silverstone on anything other than race day is a totally underwhelming experience. The track looks very tatty. Go to Brands Hatch on a corporate and Palmer's men have the place looking stunning.
Donington has awful facilities, access and it's very unimpressive for spectators, but Silverstone has had ample time to sort itself out and hasn't.
It'll be interesting to see what the govenment do now, as the money that was thrown away for the A43 is difficult to justify now...
Bernie hasn't helped the smaller circuits and the BRDC haven't helped themselves, but it is true that the UK doesn't have a truly world-class motorsport facility...it'll be interesting to see how this develops...
