Grand Prix on Friday Afternoon - Crowds already camping
“We are very disappointed that the British Racing Drivers’ Club was unable to come to an agreement with F1 Management and Allsport to secure the British Grand Prix after 2010.
“We have been working with Silverstone Circuits, the British Racing Drivers’ Club and Aylesbury Vale District Council for more than a year to ensure that world class facilities could be provided at Silverstone and we are very concerned at the effect this will have on local businesses that are reliant on motor sport.
“It is also disappointing when only last month planning permission was granted by Aylesbury Vale District Council for a new pit and paddock development.”
From Councillor Mary Clarke, Deputy Leader of South Northamptonshire Council and responsible for Economic Development, Enterprise and Growth.
