Closed Make government help fund Silverstone Circuit so they can keep hosting F1

Closed on

Silverstone is the home of Formula One, & motor racing in general. The British Grand Prix NEEDS to be kept at this historic track to help sustain the future of the sport. It's bad enough we, the fans, are unable to watch all races live on free-to-air, so to lose this too would be devastating.
