No Donington GP, says Ecclestone 
Formula 1 commercial rights holder Bernie Ecclestone has categorically insisted there will be no British Grand Prix at Donington Park next year.
"There's no Donington," said Ecclestone at the new Yas Marina track in Abu Dhabi ahead of the final race of 2009.
The proposed move from Silverstone to Donington collapsed because the company redeveloping the circuit failed to show it had the £135m funding required.
Silverstone are trying to ensure there will be a British Grand Prix in 2010.
The company which owns the Northamptonshire circuit, Silverstone Holdings, stalled when a new deal was being renegotiated.
That allowed Donington Ventures Leisure Ltd - who lease Donington Park from the owning Wheatcroft family - to sign a 17-year deal with Ecclestone, which is now dead in the water.
