Script:
SOUNDBITE: (English) Jenson Button
(What would you make of a London Grand Prix)
"I love Silverstone. I would not want to change it at all but I think that having another British Grand Prix and maybe calling it something else would be great. I think it would be great for the sport because there are a lot of British fans and supporters. So I think it would be great and the idea that we have here with Santander with having a London Grand Prix is great and it is an idea at the moment, but I think that if it did become a reality in the future we would all love that, not just the British drivers I think it would be a great spectacle racing around London."
SOUNDBITE: (English) Lewis Hamilton
(What are your thoughts about the potential of a London Grand Prix?)
"I think it could be just incredible and the Monaco Grand Prix is good fun. Street circuits are always good fun. The Silverstone Grand Prix is the best for us because it's our home Grand Prix and it seems to be the most packed Grand Prix that we go to and the atmosphere from the fans make it that much better. But I can imagine if you bring that to London and multiply it by ten, twenty, a hundred thousand people it will be insane."
