The British Grand Prix, threatened in recent weeks, will take place at Donington in 2010, according to Simon Gillett, circuit manager. Recently, strong disagreements took place between the owner of the circuit, Wheatcroft and Son Limited, and Donington Ventures Leisure Limited (DVLL), the manager, on the grounds that DVLL owed it 2,8 million euros in rent arrears. From then on, the possibility of seeing the British GP disappear from the circuit was real, according to Bernie Ecclestone himself. “ If Donington can't stage the British GP, then it's over. We will leave from Great Britain. » But Simon Gillett wanted to be reassuring, arguing that the signs he is receiving from behind the scenes are positive.
