I read the artikle in Autosport, and from what i gathered the BTCC organisers are still waiting for a reply from Silverstone on wheather or not they will accept the date, no final decision made yet?
Might be me getting it wrong though.
As for Rockingham, thats not at all far from Silverstone, and very near kettering i think. So for me atleast its very close.

Am I the only person who finds Silverstone a bleak, open, and impersonnal. Your miles from the action thanks to all the F1 safety fencing & runoff area's you might as well be at home.
Before someone mentions this season finale crowds, I feel they would have gone to whichever circuit was hosting the last round.I never forget a face, but in your case I'll be glad to make an exception.

Alot of people had free tickets for the final round, so that boosted the gate. But yes your right it is a bit of a bleak place.

I think you might need to see an optometrist as well, those rose tinted spectacles are clearly causing you some problems.

No idea why their people had slightly stretched the truth about not knowing they'd been dropped, but it's probably as much a misunderstanding as anything.
On a different note, Silverstone are claiming to have already sold record numbers of GP tickets on the back of Jenson Button's win last season. Yeah, sure they have - just like they claim to have almost sold out every year before offering cut price deals ....."The Jaguar's going cheap"
"Shouldn't it be purring?" :confused:

Silverstone is a terrible circuit to spectate at, yet usually produces great racing.
