Silverstone to remodel track

[Bob]

Silverstone is to remodel part of the circuit, following their taking over the rights to MotoGP from 2010.

The main change is a new section of track running from the approach at Abbey corner to a spectacular "Arrowhead" at the inside of Becketts. The Arrowhead will then join up with the existing National Straight.
