Also, Silverstone considering pulling out of hosting the British GP after the 2019 race because of 'crippling costs'. Apparently in 2015, the race weekend made a loss of £2 million.

What I find ludicrous about this is that track has to PAY the organiser, in any other sport or music concert, the organiser has to HIRE the venue.

If every circuit told F1 to basically do one, let's see them hold a championship with nowhere to race.
