Not only did that leave hundreds of frustrated drivers unable to hit the track, but it also meant lost revenue for the circuit. <\/p>\n<p>At the time, my instructor mentioned that many car rental

about taking to one of the world&rsquo;s most famous and difficult racetracks, and it may force them to seek out alternative circuits in Europe.<\/p>\n<div class=\"ad-placement\">\n<div
