History :
Silverstone is owned and operated by the British Racing Drivers Club and opened for racing in 1948 using the runways and service roads of a wartime airfield. The outline is still visible, but constant development and massive investment are still needed to bring Silverstone's facilities up to Bernie Ecclestone's standards.
Revisions to the circuit, enhanced safety precautions, new pits and a redeveloped paddock complex are just part of the ongoing story.
Silverstone hosted the first-ever round of the world championship in 1950 and is one of only two circuits to host a Championship race consistently since then.
However, 2009 marks the final year that Silverstone, with the famous Copse, Becketts and Stowe corner will be on the calendar as in 2010 Donington Park takes over the hosting of the British GP.
