	European Grand Prix
		The European Grand Prix is a Formula One event that was held during the mid-80's and has been held mostly regularly since 1993.
		This race would revive the European Grand Prix tag, and the race would become a classic with Ayrton Senna's famous victory in wet/dry conditions with him essentially lapping the field.
		Because of this it hosted the race again in 1996, but after complaints that no other countries were to get the race, the Nurburgring race was renamed the Luxembourg Grand Prix[?] as Jerez got the race back in 1997.

		It mattered not a lot because at the start of lap 27 something seized in the back end of Damon's Williams and he was dumped into a sandpit.
		It was where the very first World Championship event was held in 1950; it is where most of the F1 circus cuts its teeth and dented barriers in the junior formulae; it is where the majority of the British F1 teams spend days and days pounding around testing between races.
		Silverstone is easier because if there is a crisis one can rush back to the factory to fix a problem or find a spare part; it is also more pleasant because it is the only Grand Prix from which a lot of people can go home at night and sleep in their own beds.

		Damon Hill spun off on his last Grand Prix race on Sunday, in a low-key farewell to an up and down career which peaked with a world championship triumph at the same track three years ago.
		Hill's early exit was a far cry from his victory at the season-ending 1996 Japanese Grand Prix, which earned him the world title against Canadian prodigy Jacques Villeneuve.
		For 1997 Hill signed for the TWR Arrows team, but it was a massive drop in status and the results would not come in the inferior car.

	2006 MotoGP - British Grand Prix, Donington - webBikeWorld
		The British Grand Prix ranks equally with the Dutch TT as Edwards' most successful event in the premier-class, having finished second there two years ago and narrowly missing the podium last year, so he has high hopes that he can bounce back from that disappointment with another top performance.
		The British Grand Prix can't come soon enough for Colin Edwards, who heads to another of his favourite tracks looking to bury his Assen nightmare with that elusive first MotoGP win.
		The prevalent off-camber nature of the track is one of the main factors at play during the British Grand Prix, with a large tendency for the front tire to push, making the right, left, right flick down the Craner Curve section something of a high tension rollercoaster ride.

		It was not Mansell's first British GP victory (that was in 1986), and not his the most dramatic of his four career wins (that was in 1987, overtaking Nelson Piquet), but certainly his most rewarding.
		But in characteristic style, the aggressive Brazilian won five Grands Prix, including the European GP at a restored Donington Park circuit in England— where Auto Union and Mercedes had dueled in the late 1930s — in one of the most memorable drives of his career.

		Grand Prix is their best album so far, just shading Bandwagonesque for sheer loveliness.
		Grand Prix mines that seam of melodious guitar pop, sixties style, better than any other 90s album I can think of.

		he British Grand Prix not only marks the first race in the second half of the planned season, but also marks the beginning of the end of the 1997 silly season.
		If the race was any other apart from the British Grand Prix, Schumacher would certainly be favourite for a race win, and Irvine for a podium, but the extensive testing of the British teams could prove too big a hurdle to get over.
		Reliability or lack thereof, must be the thing foremost in the mind of Paul Stewart as he approaches the first home Grand Prix for the new team on the block.
