Looks like the British F1 GP might be held on Silverstone's new 'Arena' circuit:

Originally planned for the MotoGP, it seems that it is finding favour to be used for the F1 race too.

It hopefully equals more overtaking!

oooh wider start to finish straight to exit onto which means on the throttle quicker!

You can see where the new pit straight will be from 2011, too.
