British Grand Prix Odds
At the end of the Second World War in 1945, two of England's circuits, Donington Park and the legendary Brooklands, had fallen into disrepair which gave Silverstone the opportunity to steal the limelight and become the home of the British Motor Racing. When the Formula 1 World Championship began in 1950, Silverstone held the very first round, won by Guiseppe Farina in an Alfa Romeo. It was though that 2009 would be the last Grand Prix at Silverstone after they lost the contract to Donnington Park but they have since struggled financially meaning that Silverstone has won a 17-year contract to retain the race. The 2010 British Grand Prix will be held on Sunday 11th July over the new Arena Circuit Layout and with plenty of British interest in the McLaren team it will be a great atmosphere.

The Circuit Details
In 1951 the British Racing Drivers' Club (BRDC) was handed the lease by the RAC, and huge modifications were made to Silverstone. The pits were moved to the straight between Woodcote and Copse, from the Farm straight where they had originally been, and a short circuit was built within the larger circuit, cutting from Becketts corner to Woodcote. In recent years Octagon Motorsports, the leaseholders of the British Grand Prix, have been busy upgrading the track with the BRDC modernising in tandem. The Silverstone track has 60 laps a circuit length of 5.141km and a race distance of 308.355km. The lap record for Silverstone is currently held by Michael Schumacher who clocked 1.18.739 in 2004.
