None comply with latest criteria that they must have public transport access.Shanghai is building a light rail line.Doubt that anyone will pay for one from Northampton.

keep it at Silverstone..........Silverstone is a wonderful circuit , with good falcitys.....
Brands is a awesome circuit that would be ruined if they moved the GP there.....so leave it as it is i say. |

In terms of layout, both Brands and Donington would be good, but Silverstone is really the only one that has sufficient facilities and a wide enough track.

Rotate it between Silverstone and Donington, Brands too if they promise not to ruin it.

Donnington. Brands would be ruined, and Silverstone already is.
Hmm... On second thought... Crystal Palace? |

What about the Dundrod circuit? Or perhaps the Isle of Mann TT track?..... In reality the race will probably stay at Silverstone. THey could always alternate like they used to back in the day. Leave Brands alone, Donnington and Silverstone would be just fine. Don't be surprised if somebody starts floating around the idea of racing at the new Rockingham inner raod circuit.

Brands/Silverstone in alternate years
But they'd butcher Brands if it was back on the calendar, so that's out of the question. |

When the idea of running the GP at Brands was first mentioned back in 1999, i was really excited about the prospect, i only live 15 miles away and Brands is a brilliant circuit, then i went up to Silverstone for the GP and remembered how much more suited it is, alot bigger,(did you know that you can fit the entire Brands Hatch complex on the infield of the Silverstone circuit ) and alot easier access. I love Brands, but it's not properly suited to F1, however, it would make an ideal testing track....especially when i'm on earlies
