Silverstone circuit has unveiled plans to build a completely new pits complex and media centre in order to put the Northamptonshire track back in the running to host the 2002 British Grand Prix. Circuit bosses are set to spend £8.5 million to bring Silverstone up to current Formula 1 standards with a new pitlane on the Hangar straight, which would become the new start-finish point for the Grand Prix.
Excuse me but what's wrong with the pits and media centre now. I can think of a lot of other things to spend £8.5 million on - a roof on the grandstands - a tunnel/bridge from Woodcote to pits.
Anybody else think the same?
