		Silverstone and the British grand prix heritage are under more intensive threat than at any time since Ecclestone launched an unforgiving onslaught on the track after the notorious rain-soaked Easter Monday fixture four years ago which saw the track's spectator parking areas degenerate into glutinous quagmires.
		Damon Hill, the winner of the 1994 British grand prix at Silverstone at the wheel of a Williams-Renault, admitted it would be regrettable if the race were dropped from the calendar.

		The fact that the FIA is refusing to confirm or deny the story that the British GP will not happen in 2002 looks like it could be an attempt by the motor racing authorities to give the government a couple of weeks in which to get serious or face cancellation of the race.
		The British Racing Drivers' Club has Sir Jackie Stewart banging on the door of The Establishment but to date this has not made much of a difference (at least when one is looking in from the outside).

	British Grand Prix: Party off as Button sent to back of class Independent on Sunday, The - Find Articles (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-02)
		As a young man who, from the moment he stood as an awestruck 14-year-old at Silverstone's Copse Corner and witnessed Damon Hill triumph in the 1994 British Grand Prix, knew that his destiny was to be a grand prix driver, he has savoured successes all along the way.

	SimHQ.com - Motorsports Zone - Preview: 2004 British Grand Prix - Round 11 of 18
		Coming down the start/finish straight you brake lightly for Copse (a fast right hander taken at about 150 mph) you then accelerate past the exit of the pit lane (on your right into the Becketts complex which is a complex consisting of right and left sweeps).
		This is one of the best places to see just how fast a modern grand prix car goes as they are taken at fairly high speed.
		As you can imagine this is the heaviest braking point on the track and the number of potential lines you can take in and out of the corner means that it is one of the best overtaking points of all on the circuits which the grand prix cars visit.
