Donington Park development

Anyone know how it is progressing?

Did they raise the money?

Are they on target for hosting the 2010 Brit GP?

Well, I popped over there a couple of weeks ago, it looks no different except no Dunlop bridge and some mud has been moved from one part of the track to another, just as it had 6 months ago. And now they've got the same development people who did Wembley Stadium. So its a safe bet it'll be ready to host the British GP. In 2030.

As I suspected, thanks for the update

I'll be honest, it's a total mess. They've had more trouble with that new tunnel and the macadam collapsing. It looks generally very unkempt on the infield. I just hope they hurry up and sort it without making a massive mess of the place. Maybe they'll think about promoting their events at some point as well...

I'm off for a L.O.T evening on Friday, will update.
