[siddo83]

NOOOOO!!!! :-(

Been fascinated by that bridge since I was a nipper!

[talk74]

heavy metal indeed! but why?

[itsbrad2008]

duh lol, he said heavy metal in another way it is made out of metal!

[talk74]

yeah...obviously! my 'why?' is why were they pulling it down?

[stuey300]

£100 million revamp of the circuit and facilities. The track at that point is being moved slightly, so the bridge had to come down. I think the circuit owners plan to reinstate it when the new track is complete.

[mu301nh]

dude great video,i thought the tyre would still be attached!! Shame about the bridge though, isnt donington gonna hold the grand prix there from 2010, they need the bridge! :-)

[FictionalGeorge]
