I'm afraid I am not so optimistic as the rest of you. Can you explain why BE should invest in a circuit he neither owns or leases? It makes no financial sense for him to spend a penny on Silverstone as the beneficiary would ultimately be the BRDC and we all know he and they are far from 'mates'. I think he will take the BGP to an alternative venue, possibly Donington or at an outside bet Brands which would be the final slap in the face to the BRDC.
I hope I'm wrong but something tells me the days of BGP at Silverstone are numbered.
