Question Silverstone and UK Operators

Now that Silverstone looks like it will be dropped from the Grand Prix Calendar (final decision on the 13/10), what does this mean for the UK helicopter market?

Many years ago I used to work for a large operator (no names but a number of sites in the South East) and they used to make somewhere in the region of 70% of their profits off the back of the Grand Prix weekend. Whilst this information may be out of date, if this is true across the UK, what will be the effects for the marketplace as a whole?
