I did wonder if this would happen and it looks certain it will. I like Silverstone as a track but you will struggle to beat watching a field of Moto GP bikes screaming down the craner curves!

what I've seen on tv from Silverstone, is that it's going to be far too unsafe for a MotoGP race.. Maybe the shortened track is an option, but I don't like that layout.

Can't they just come out on Brands Hatch ;) ?

I thought this might happen and I'm not best pleased. Okay, so the facilities are far better, but the track, for bikes is flat and featureless. Nothing beats the Craner Curves.
Another thing, I bet the prices increase as well.

It will also with remaining on Donington I think

Will Donnington be dropped from the schedule? Or will the UK get 2 GPs?

I do not follow WSB or BSB. Do either of these series currently race at Silverstone? If they do, is there an on board vid of the course?

Its official. Silverstone will host the British Grand Prix from 2010.

I hope they dont change the circuit too much, id hate them to change famous corners like Bridge which will be very fast on a Moto Gp bike. The only part id like to see changed is the pathetic chicane they built at Woodcote, it has to be one of the worst sections in world championship motorsport!
