    Someone (might have been Joe Saward) pointed out that assuming Ross Brawn and Nick Fry are liable for capital gains tax on the money they'd have made from the Mercedes deal, the money they'd be putting into the treasury would be enough to secure the British Grand Prix for several years to come.

    Come on Gordon: you're going to lose anyway, you might as well at least make a few friends before you disappear!

    Give it up, Simon, give it up and go away.

    Donington Park still has the potential to host next year's British grand prix, according to the circuit's leasing company's chief executive Simon Gillett.

    Encouragingly the story does indicate that Silverstone might be on the brink of a new 10-year deal

    Monday is decision day, then:

    The fate of the British Grand Prix will be announced on Monday, with Silverstone management and track owner the British Racing Drivers' Club scheduling a press conference about the future of the event.

    Fingers crossed.

    Well, looks like some people think its already a done deal:

    http://www.singaporegp.org/formula-o...ix-silverstone

    But then again, that same site is also running a story with the line "It seems that Force India F1 owner Vijay Mallya is going on a hunt for F1 first ever woman driver." So make of it what you will...
