Then the 12 hours comes and I kind of feel like I'm already fatiguing a little bit from watching the WEC the day before.
I'm sure it's an incredible event to go to if you're there, but if we're doing double-headers, I'd rather it was at a new event with a Saturday/Sunday format.

Why? Are there any major British manufacturers involved, especially in the top category? And out of all the British tracks, Silverstone adds the least entertainment to the schedule. Then again, we all know FIA's fetish for Grade 1 tracks.
Going by my self proclaimed logic, Germany would be the better pick with Porsche (and soon BMW) involved with the series. Plus if you're okay with Silverstone then the Nürburgring GP course won't bother you either.
Reality is, we don't have either. Just more races in the sand traps. Big money talks, big time.
