F1 » Ecclestone: I have 'nothing against Silverstone'

Here we go.....

Ever noticed what Bernie wears on his feet?

Flip-flops.

If Bernie stood in front of me, dripping wet and told me it was raining, I'd still go and look out of the window.

What a dreadful little man he really is! I really look forward to the day that he and Moseley no longer have any connection to our sport.The only worry then would be if as some suspect,Jean Todt were to take over the reins!

I'm a little more worried by the current state of Donington at present. We have already bought our tickets for WSB and GP and i have no faith that anything is going to go ahead, especially given the lack of response by Gillet to all the current problems he is facing. Methinks as per usual it will be the fans will suffer.

As for Eccelstone, nothing suprises me anymore...but that's been the case for the last couple of years so i don't expect him to change...just get more senile and loopy!

"I have nothing against Donnington" BULLS**T! Why oh why do we have to put up with this! Is there no machinery to get rid of him and Mr Whiplash?

John,

He said he had nothing against "Silverstone"

I agree tho, horrible pair so they are.

Is it a 750 or 800 VFR and is it the VTEC 16v one ?

If it wasn't so sad, it'd be funny.

But does he think this will get him into the fans good books. Think again. The only thing that will do this is an immediately executed succession plan.

A typical comment from this little comic,If he has nothing against Silverstone how come he has been slagging it off for the past ten years

taz,oops,got it a bit wrong there,I'm a bit of an amateur at this posting lark.I meant to say Silverstone.It's a VFR 800 VTEC 16v A6 (06 model)Anyway,they both need to go,and the sooner the better.

Anyone noticed how all the new circuits with fabulous facilities have half empty grandstands, but the tacky old circuits like Monza and, whisper it quietly, Silverstone, are nearly always total sell outs? Fans like them, drivers like them, probably most of the teams like them. Sadly, not too many guesses who doesn't....Yet again the wishes of the many seem to be governed by the few.

BTW OT i know but i also have a VFR, just bought it on Friday. It's 2000 reg (W), non-VTEC, double bubble and Akrapovic end can are the only mods on it, bright red in mint condition with only 6,500 miles on it. She is immaculate but now i have her in my grasp lol!
Going to Leeds from London this weekend and have just booked my first track day at Brands. The bike is about to be ridden how it should be.....i do more than 6,500 miles in a year...some people and their play toys
