Anyone heard about any changes "at the top" in the Silverstone management setup ?

Yes, look see >> https://www.scribd.com/doc/243736408/BRDC-Statemen...

tweeted from the FORMULAMONEY account last night.. oddly only a few hours earlier "a source" told me all about it before the statement was released....

apparently the loss of the Motogp has broken them.. they've all fled the ship...

There is also a piece on Pitpass: http://www.pitpass.com/52766/Problems-at-Silversto...

The press release uses strange terminology - it talks about a restructuring, but specifically states certain individuals have been "suspended on full pay", which doesn't sit with a restructuring, where typically you undertake a consultation and redundancy exercise where those unlucky enough not to make the cut are made redundant with any notice pay & statutory redundancy.

Can anyone shed any light?

Silverstone -- a global hub of elite motorsport -- has been lurching from one crisis to another for 30+ years. A real shame.

Some whispers of "funny" business, but this is unconfirmed.
