Don´t know what you are all guessing about .

The Algarve already has a F1 racetrack for many years .
It is situated between Sagres and Vila Real .

Some folks call it the EN 125 !!!!!!!!

Many upcoming young ( and old ) drivers use it as a training circuit .......

Sure about Estoril are you? I thought they were modifying the track because there is a motogp there in October.

Ah, a bit more research says it was in April.

How about the fact that A1 Grand Prix’s first race calendar revealed Estoril as the host of the third round in the 12-race global series with Figo as one of the sponsors for Portugals car.

Good news - the new runway is being constructed to be able to take the A 380 which in all economy format can seat 780 people.

This brings the cost of a sight-seeing trip for Ellie down to 10 euros - the problem is that it will take a long time to fill the aircraft so I will only be doing one trip every two years

The second good news is that the end of the extended runway will be within walking distance of thew F1 circuit.

The best news for those who believed this preposterous tale is that I shall be back in good old rainy UK for a holiday and unable to receive any abuse.
