- For information, it is 55-60 (#,L,GBP,UKP,etc.) to get into the GP on the
- Sunday and 120 thingies if you want to get into the GP and sit in one of
- the stands. These are the sort of prices Silverstone was charging last year
- when i) there was a chance of a UK world champion, and ii) Silverstone had
- built up a name for itself as the host of the GB Grand Prix. I am not casting
- aspersions on Donington Park's right to hold the GP, just that as this is
- the first time they have held a F1 GP in 50 years they shouldn't really be
- trying to charge prices that even Silverstone might not get away with this year.

- Friday's practice is around 15 thingies and Saturday's 20 or 25. The practice
- prices are vague as I have left the leaflet at home, but in the correct region.
- The prices are for advance booking. Closer to the event add about a fiver
- to all prices.
