I agree with what Mark Webber said on the subject:
Ridiculous idea that is only being bandied about because there is not enough overtaking. Perhaps they should ditch some of the circuits where over taking is difficult!! (e.g. Hungaroring).

I was speaking to a season ticket, and they were laying the blame at the players! Sounds familiar.
I don't think calling it the "BP/Shell/Exxon-Mobil/etc.. Arena" would be all that bad.
Not sure about a green and yellow BP logo outside the stadium though.
Don't know if anyone saw it but there's a spoof 6-part documentary about the planning for 2012 on BBC4:

It was quite good and had some laughs. Next week's episode looks really good (there's a preview at the end of this week's episode).
If you like the style of the Office and The Thick of It then you'll like - it's nowhere near as funny though!

So its just funding now, is it?
I'm going to try for tickets for the athletics 10,000 and 5,000 finals to see Mo Farah.
I think the Athletics tickets are going to be very difficult to get hold of.
Might try for swimming and cycling too.
