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.
