Re, Silverstone (again, sorry)
I might be being very optimistic here, but I sense that WEC is on the cusp of a real revival given the surge in entries to the hypercar/lmdh class, and being more more road relevant than F1.
And there is a lot (and I mean a lot) of hospitality that has been built or is being built at Silverstone. You almost miss the turning point at Maggots gazing at all the new apartments they've built up there. Then there is the new Hilton opposite the start line. Surely the investors for this stuff would value another marque event after the top 2 - their current business model would appear one-sided to put it mildly.

I'm living in hope, but it's a great circuit and the best sportscars in the world should be racing there despite all of our grumblings about the place.
