if it was ever to happen and silverstone lost the british gp which other british track would people like to see it goto?

i personally would like to see it go to the rockingham (infield track rather than oval) in corby. it would be different as it is a very challenging track, as well as only being a few minutes drive up the road from me!

Brands or Donington.

Brands because it is probably the greatest track in Britain, and the second home of British racing, and Donington because it produced the best lap of the 90s.

The Rockingham Oval. It would be a test of top speed so surely even Ralf could get on the podium

Brand Hatch would be awesome for modern F1 cars... would be very fun to watch!! although the facilities are a bit shoddy.. Sad

Brands Hatch was infinitely more interesting than Silverstone, better infrastucture, a natural amphitheatre for the spectator and just a far better circuit.

That said the best place to hold the British GP would probably be Monza! Very Happy

yeah. why should germany be home of the europeon gp. europe is not just about 1 country. Wouldn't it be great having a different track each year. it would vary it and we maybe able to find a track that team MS sorry i mean ferrari are not very good at.
