That would be amazing, i remember the Formula 3000 races in Birmingham City centre.
I hope they do it.

They were talking about this at the weekend in the pre-race chat, street races can be either amazing or utterly boring to watch, this seasons Monaco was awful, but, some years it's brilliant, loads of crashes and what not. The street races are all about the occasion and a race in London would be brilliant for the UK and easy for all the UK fans to get to. F1 is by far my favourite sport so I'd love another UK grand prix. Only 3 weeks then I'm off to Hockenheim to watch the German race.

And where pray tell, will they find enough road without the utilities digging holes everywhere, they'll have to turn the speed cameras off as well :hurray:

3.2 miles long a lap.. so supposed to be the longest street circuit ...

 

[Colour Republic]

Has Bernie ever driven in London?? I can see it now, lap times of 4 and a half hours

 

[Dan]

Would love to see this happen and I'd certainly go to watch it.

Thats Typical...the Queen gets a good view !!!!:lol:

 

[Dan]

They'd section it off for us poorpers so we all had to pay.

 

[Ian]

The New York circuit looks good as well, that would be mega to go and watch, probably a bit more expensive than popping down to London!
