Silverstone's last hurrah in Formula One as it makes way next year for Donington Park, and without a doubt it is likely to be missed by the drivers - certainly not Bernie Ecclestone - as it remains one of the fastest venues in the world. It is sweeping, wide, and the Becketts esses are one of the most fearsome sections anywhere.
