Interlagos is "a tip"

Formula 1 boss Bernie Ecclestone admitted at the weekend in France that the Interlagos circuit in Sao Paulo is "a tip" when challenged that he is always attacking Silverstone when there other circuits which are far worse than the British facilty.

"That's not the point," Ecclestone said. "It's in Brazil. Silverstone is in Britain, the home of motor racing. I go to other circuits around the world and I'm embarrassed when I go to Silverstone."
