An interesting read for any F1 fan.

F1 News > No cars for Donington Park

Great idea but will never work - with all the stuff you have to take to a GP - chairs, cold boxes, beer, cameras, clothes - buses will not do the job.

And what about those who like to camp out for the weekend?

The British Grand Prix at Donington - if it happens - will be held without fans being able to drive into the circuit

BBC SPORT | Motorsport | Formula One | F1 boss plans scoring revolution.

Formula One boss Bernie Ecclestone says he is determined to introduce a new scoring system that would see the driver with most wins crowned champion. Lewis Hamilton would have failed to win this year's title under such a system, which Ecclestone wants for 2009. "It's going to happen. All the teams are happy. The whole reason for this is I am fed up with people talking about there being no overtaking," he said. Gold, silver and bronze medals would be given to the top three finishers.
