I knew I should have had a few quid on my prediction
.
good old Bernie is 5 steps ahead of everyone else, be interesting to now see what he really had up his sleeve when he went along with this ruse
back then, no doubt it will all become clear soon enough.
Anybody want to know this Saturdays lottery numbers
its a pity for Donnington, but in reality it was obvious nothing was really going to happen.

Yes big plans will be drawn up and submitted and probably approved by the local authority but the massive funds to develop will never be secured privately.
Silverstone make very little money from the british GP, most of the revenue streams go elsewhere other than to the organisers, so no way will the private sector stump up 100 million for a once a year event thats produces so little profit.
Bernie knows this and you can guarantee any contract he has with Donnington will have a million and one get out clauses, even Damon Hill said the games not up yet.
Its a pity but no way will the funds materialise to make this happen in reality.
