Well I must admit that the BRDC might have done more to upgrade the track, but it is a private members club, and as such not too deep in the pockets. Yes the government should help for the sake of Britain's image around the world, but hey there is no other sport apart from football, for most of the morons in the present goverment.
Lottery funding is I think, out of the question because it is a private club, so I don't have an answer. I do know that even before this happened I thought Ecclestone was a slimy little shit, and this hasn't proved me wrong in any way. He is English after all, and one would have thought that a bit of patriotism might have crept into his heart, if he has one!
