MOTOGP » Who should host the British MotoGP?

as much as i love brands hatch, actually i would love to see motogp at oulton park. wwith constant elevation changes, watching the bikes airborne at the main straight is a sight to behold indeed.

Gotta be brands! the drop from Paddock Hill bend, the drop from Pilgrims drop, the whole track is just top notch, facilities aren't bad (for those who even care) easy access and the best day out for motorsport!

I voted for Brands, although they do vanish up into the woods for a lot of the lap! maybe get them on the indy circuit 75 laps!?!?

I think cadwell park would be brilliant! get them there...!

Whilst I love Brands I don't want to see MotoGP or F1 or any other kind of mental stupid bunch of idiots there.

If those people come to Brands they would change it forever into a nightmare of massive run off areas and kilometre high fences.

There are two reasons why it would never happen though:

1) Paddock Area - not enough space for the teams (MotoGP brings easily twice as much as WSB and F1 is even bigger)

2) Road access - the council wouldn't let them stage something as big as that because of the travel impact, and MotoGP/F1 know that so wouldn't even consider it.

Suits me, means the Brands I love gets left the **** alone!!

Cadwell Park ... gotta see Rossi et. al. over The Mountain.

I agree with those above, Brands would be ruined, same for Oulton really. But of the tracks in the UK i think Oulton Park would be an awesome MotoGP event although i would expect massive changes would be required, specially being able to ride into the lake at Shell Oils.

The MotoGP riders would have a heart attack at Cadwell, Spectators a few meters away from the track... and the mountain...!

Silverstone GP should be good, least they aren't using the International Circuit.
Plenty of opportunities for manoevers and high speed sections, should be a good race. Roll on 2010...(with no electronic aids).

Good point Dogs Borrocks, wouldn't want it changed into Qatar overnight with more tarmac used for run off than on the circuit!

There is only one circuit which is the natural choice of riders and spectators........................


Cadwell Park !!!!

The best circuits in the UK are Brands Hatch GP, Oulton Park and Cadwell Park, probably in that order. But none will ever host a GP. Donington is a bit Mickey Mouse and Silverstone is always going to be flat and a bit dull - but realistically, they're all we've got!

it would never happen in a million years but wouldnt it be fun sorting the men from the boys at knockhill.
