Bernie Ecclestone has offered to pay more than £35m to stage a grand prix in London. It is estimated that up to 100m could be generated from it giving the UK and London a boost.

Good idea ? Or will the 'greens' and 'right-on' brigade kick off along with a cavalcade of other nutters?

I thought you had to pay Ecclestone to get a race staged not the other way round? I remember when the Tour de France came to London, Ken said it had cost £2m to get it there whereas a grand prix would have cost over £20m.
I'd still love to see it though!
It's been a while since I was down in London but I seem to remember the streets being paved with potholes.
Has there been a major improvement that will allow vehicles with a 5mm ground clearance to perform as designed?
Yes a good idea, but is it too late for it to be staged during the Olympics?

There be fun and games for you.
I find Fornmula 1 thesedays to be very dull.

I Wonder how much the disruption to London for 4 days will cost?

I doubt the The 'Greens' could stop it but the nimbys might.
Apparently with set up and dismantling the event would cause disruption for 8 days.
they'd probably still make the race drivers pay congestion charge.
No doubt Dave and Nick will give it the go-ahead if Osborne can see it being a big money maker for the Govt. Bunch of 'crooks', the lot of 'em.
This is all a big cover-up as he has just been caught paying a banker £28 million to "keep calm". This is hush money to appease the UK government and keep the tax inspector off his back. There is a good article about all his shenanigans here: http://www.monacogran...-jailed-for-f1-bribes
