A press conference in London today confirmed that the British Racing Drivers’ Club have reached an agreement to host the British Grand Prix at Silverstone for the next 17-years.

The BRDC president Damon Hill said;

“It is not easy to enter into a contract of this magnitude and you have to take on a lot of responsibility, but the BRDC wanted this relationship to continue – we were prepared to back the negotiating team with the level of risk satisfactory for the deal to go ahead.

The title of Silverstone as home of motorsport has come true. It is a place for all motorsport. Everyone in the BRDC loves motorsport and we are looking forward to the MotoGP as well as the British Grand Prix.

This long-term contract will enable us to continue with our plans to develop Silverstone into a world class facility, bringing the venue into line with the very best sports facilities in the world for the benefit of all race goers, teams, drivers and fans.”
