Silverstone: Critical weeks for British GP
Silverstone has issued a fresh warning about the future of the British Grand Prix, claiming there are now just a few 'critical' weeks left to secure the event on next year's Formula 1 calendar.
Amid continuing uncertainty about the state of funding and redevelopment plans at Donington Park, Silverstone has made no secret of the fact that it is ready to step into the breach to hold the 2010 race if needed.
However, Silverstone thinks it can only hold on for just a few more weeks before it becomes too late for its plans to be put into action - which then risks the British GP falling off the calendar entirely if Donington's ambitions fall short.
Renewed fears about Donington Park's plans have surfaced after it said its funding would be in place by the end of July, but so far no details have been made public
