Silverstone wants British MotoGP.

If it left donington it should only go to brands hatch, silverstone for me isnt good enough, all the WSBK races their are pretty dull.

NO THANKS!!!!!!
WHY CAN,T BRANDS GET IT!!!!!!!!
PLEASE NOT BACK TO BORING OLD SLIVERSTONE!!!!!!

Please don't do it. Agree with you Brendan, if not Donnington the only place to be is Brands. Silverstone is a terrible track for viewing whereas Brands is completely the opposite. I think the facilities are actually better at Brands too. What would Brands have to do to the place to make it suitable for gp? Interested to know just how much would need to be done

Silverstone is the worst viewing circuit in the country and whilst it might impress the F1 fan club for bike racing fans it is dire. Get it on the GP circuit at Brands. At least Jonathan Plamer understands motorsport. If it is safe enough for the WSBK it must be ok for the MotoGP circus. I remember watching the GP from Silverstone in the 70's and early 8-'s and heaved a sigh of relief when it went to Donington

Give it to Cadwell - that'll sort the men from the boys !!

not silverstone please crap viewing and they have problems with traffic
if not donnington then brands please

Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Silverstone is pants! I'd miss the grass banks of donny. Sit in a stand? I'd rather poke my eyes out with a screwdriver!

Not Silverstone please. Boring, flat and with that comedy final chicane. I don't think it could be Brands as there is not enough run off for motogp regs and no possibility for more as the land outside the track is privately owned and not for sale.

I hope the ridiculous chicane at Silverstone would not be used in the event of the British GP being moved there.

Give it to Cadwell Park - I only live 15 miles away!!

no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no no
if moto gp does leave donnington it should seriously consider brands, if it went to silverstone it would be completely s h i t e

If Laguna seca's safe enough for Motogp then so is Brands Hatch, If it moves anywhere it should go there, When will these people learn bikes don't work around silverstone, I can't remember a decent bike race around there in recent years, WSB was miles better at Donington in my opinion. This is probably a greed thing, Silverstone can pack more spectators in and has that multi million pound BRDC building for the Dorna mob to get drunk in while the rest of the fans are stuck outside with a **** view of the racing or what passes for racing at Silverstone, I doubt Donington could survive without the GP. This is bad as premier league games abroad as far as i'm concerned.

Could it be a trick to put pressure on the owners of Donington to renovate the place?

Having raced at both, nothing compares to Donington and I don't think any rider who's been round both tracks would disagree.

I've also spectated at both and found it difficult to get a good view of the track other than the complex at Silverstone. As for Donny, well its great watching from the banking above Craner through to Swart and up to Mcleans.

The noise is phenomenal too as the bikes sit in the amphitheatre. Does Brands add anything better for the spectator, I'm not sure?

Keep it where is is and order better weather!

Foxy

Count me out if it moves to Silverstone. Donington is more central. Never fancied traveling to Brands.

Forgot to mention I live 15 minutes away....

Silverstone are looking for a headline race to replace F1 which they expect to lose. Leave things as they are or move it to Brands if needs be - but no to Silverstone.

One more thing, Silverstone ditched the British GP in the 1980s after the attendance started dropping off and it was Donington who picked up the pieces, Silverstone is no friend to Motorcycles and they never will be, They only want the GP now guys like Toseland and Bradley Smith have sparked abit of interest among British fans, They want to milk the fans for every penny, Watch them ram up those ticket prices to Formula one levels.

I went to the last 500 GP at Silverstone in 1986 and it pi**ed it down all day and as most posters have said the views there were cr*p. Donninton is great for bikes but the melbourne loop that was added to bring it up to GP length really lets it down. If the paddock isnt big enough, then instead of the foggy esses, the track should go left at the end of the back straight and out into the carparking area, do some twiddliy bits and then rejoin the circuit at goddards. this would free up all the lower section of the loop for the extended paddock and hopefully keep the flowing nature of the track together.

The reason why WSBK is c**p at Silverstone is because thet use that stupid "International" circuit. I used to go to the old GP's at Silverstone and you always got good racing (except when it was wet - and when it was wet it was very wet!!), especially the 80cc (yes I said 80cc in the days of more than 3 classes) 125cc, 250cc and 350cc races. Due to straights and no stupid "Goddard Loop". Donington races are almost always strung out.

Now they have messed up Woodcote not sure if that would still be the same.

As for not seeing anything, go and stand on the bit between Stowe and Club corners. You can see down the Hanger straight (tops of head only though) out of Stowe, all the way to Abbey
