The idea has been bouncing around for years but thanks to a Santander promotional event held in the Capital yesterday the idea looks like it could be closer to becoming a reality than at any point in the past.
Mr F1 Bernie Ecclestone has even suggested that he would be willing to fund the project!

Pit lane and the grid would be situated along the Mall, pit buildings created using temporary 'Pods' removing the need for a physical and permanent construction like we see in Monaco, Valencia and at Albert Park.
The latest 'London Grand Prix' speculation comes just weeks after the hint that a race could be held in and around the Olympic Stadium once the 2012 games have been and gone.

It really is a great time for Formula 1!
