Re: F1 moves to DONNINGTON in 2010

wow, indie you seem really p1ssed!! is it because your losing your local GP circuit to us Midlanders!! ;-)

I would have thought it'd be cheaper to renovate an older circuit than build a new one.

Have you seen building costs recently?

They reckon they can redo Dono for 100 mil - which is reasonable. How much would it cost to build a new circuit? much more than 100mil (figures for shanghai were over 300 million dollars - 175 mil UK - and that's using cheap chinese labour) - how much would our "expensive britain" contractors want??!!

There should be a drive to move sporting events away from the south.... <flame on>

Honda CBR 600RR and proud!!
