Distorted remarks for Bernie E.?

Bernie Ecclestone had recently expressed strong criticism in The Guardian concerning the old circuits of F1 Europeans, who would still only be present on the calendar thanks to the agreement of their government. The great financier of the discipline had notably cited Spa-Francorchamps and Silverstone.

But Bernie Ecclestone does not confirm these statements to the RTBF. " The Guardian distorted my words. I am convinced that we will lose European races in the years to come, that is almost certain, but I cannot tell you which ones. We want to keep Spa. There are long discussions about the future of this GP. But if he stays, it will be thanks to his government, not thanks to me,” thus corrected Bernie Ecclestone.
