Donington 2010 - Pete Tong!

It all seems to be going a bit Pete Tong at Donington which is sad.

Autosport News

We've had corporate days out to the F3 on Sunday and GP Masters on 10th May cancelled.

I hope they can sort it but once your on the road to the courts things are taking a bad turn.

I used to be apathetic but now I just don't care.

i always thought this was part of bernies plan to remove F1 from GB,tell silverstone they are dumped and let donny spend shed loads of cash on upgrades knowing full well it would never happen then saying "we have no suitable tracks,so long and thanks for all the fish",then move all the races to the far east where the new money is...muppet!

Hope they put Donington back together, I was a bit dissappointed when the 'Wheatcrofts ' had leased it out.

Mind you the report yesterday said 2.5m in rent was owed back to Sept 2008?? , thats serious rent.

Not really a surprise.... when the change was announced last summer, Simon Gillett from Donny said he'd be announcing a debenture scheme for raising the money for the upgrades - it hasn't been announced yet, let alone had anyone invest in it.... Yet he was on the radio the other night offering the circuit to Chris Evans for a yellow car owners meet.... You kind of get the impression that he's a bit of a wheeler dealer ... "this time next year Rodders, we'll be millionaires..."

Even if they do get it up and running, what about the roads? they are crap!
Bernie's comments aren't exactly encouraging.
He got them to alter their circuit and then says he will withdraw the gp?
Nice business partner is our Bernie!

Sorry, but the quicker him and max leave F1 or Die, the better.
