No more Silverstone

FYI -

Formula one will no longer run at Silverstone.

Its traffic jams, uncertain weather, bad food and restroom problems are apparently the reasons.

The three-mile track is based on a WWII airfield and this year is the 60th anniversary of the first formula one race held there.

The British grand prix will be held at Donington Park, Leicestershire.

I think this is the last race. I'm not sure about 2009, but 2010 is scheduled for Donington Park.

Does this mean Honda is going to change that color of silver to Donington?

It will be nice to see the race at Donington, nice to mix it up a little. Any wagers on the race? Kimi? Lewis? Felipe? Jensen or Ruebens(!!!)gotta pull for Honda!
ps Silverstone Metallic isn't available anymore, Chicane (?) Silver is the only silver now...unfortunately

It won't be held at Donington until 2010, so it will be at Silverstone next year.

How about todays race? I love GP in the rain. The great equalizer, well except for Lewis...does his dad creep anyone else out? It was good to see Ruebens and HONDA on the podium finally!

I know for a FACT that the last year of production of the S2000 is 2003!!!!!
After that, it will be the S2200 under an assumed name.
