Top Gear Episode 2

Still looking for some spark to restore my faith.

Top Gear – Needs back to reality check

New series of Top Gear started this Sunday. Seems to have started where it left off last series. A few years back, that would have been a good thing. Sadly, for me, and I suspect many others, this is no longer anywhere near the case.

Does F1 need a British GP more than it thinks?

There is still no certainty that there will be a British F1 GP next year. Donnington haven’t come up with the money and Bernie is not prepared to give Silverstone the deal it wants when there are other countries willing to pay astronomical fees to host a race. It seems you have to be an oil rich country now to be able to afford a Football team or an F1 race. Seen as Donnington nor Silverstone are anywhere near oil fields and certainly don’t have a government/Royal Family willing to stump up unreasonable cash, things are looking rather bleak.
