Donington update – worse

Will anyone invest in an international circuit that has no contracts:
F1 signed to Silverstone for the next 17 years

and Moto GP at Silverstone
The longer this goes on without a takeover or sale the less likely an investor will be interested if he can’t see a return. This may also mean the sale price goes down, but seems like a risky strategy if they are playing the waiting game.
Also the track needs work just to use it:

Foggy Esses (14-16 Secs) and Melbourne Loop (16-26 Secs) need some work where trenches have dissected the track but worsted is the Starkey’s Straight (8-13 seconds), that looks to be removed unless they have just spread mud evenly all over it. Plus run-offs and barriers would need reinstating.
