But the 2016 event organisation was a shambles. There are other reasons for this move, I am convinced.
It would be easier to work on the logistics of running Lydden well than it will be to make Silverstone a good track...but I guess that wouldn't fit with the money making scheme. IMG are being a bit shortsighted if they continue down this route of removing all classic tracks. Barcelona, Hockenheim etc. just don't have the atmosphere or quality of Estering, Holjes, Hell, Loheac & Lydden etc. Wasn't going to go to Lydden this year as wanted to check out Nurburgring 24h, however think I'll have to watch the rallycross as I don't think I'll be bothering much once it moves to Silverstone. Call me crazy but I like being within 500m of the track when I watch motorsport
