Bernie Ecclestone has confirmed that Donington will not hold the British Grand Prix 2010. He said:
“There’s no Donington. They’ve missed the deadline which we kept extending for them. It’s unfortunate for them. It was the credit crunch that caused them to be in trouble – because their intentions were good, that’s for sure.”
On the subject of whether there will still be a British Grand Prix but at Silverstone, Ecclestone said:
“We’re talking. A deal can be done if they want to. There isn’t [a difference of opinion] actually. As far as I’m concerned, no problems.”
