<{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>By priced out are we talking about ticket prices Rog? Cos if so you've got a point. Its costing me £100 to go to the F1GP at Silverstone, compared to £40 for the MotoGP at Donny, both are raceday only tickets. I think the ticket prices for the MotoGP are at the perfect price right now, no decrease or increase needed. £40 for raceday or £60 for the weekend, is, for me, a fair deal. If it gets any higher than that, then it is getting stupid, to say that MotoGP races only last around 45 minutes, then that would be a rip off.
F1 is a perfect example of 'priced out'. Ecclestone charges the circuits so much just to hold the event that unless they have backing from the government, which unfortunately we don't, they are forced to charge these rediculous ticket prices. I hope MotoGP never gets to the same stage.
thats exactly my point mate.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}><div class='quotemain'>Donington is already a rip off. Weekend admission costs more than admission + grandstand did for Jerez or most other european grand prix. And that is not reflected in what you get because doningtons facilities, parking and access are all fairly poor.
i fear it will get a lot worse with its new found popularity.
