However Ecclestone pleads that they get on with business as usual.
"I don't see why they can't make it work. They get bigger crowds than anywhere else in Europe, and nobody else is complaining."
1996 world champion Damon Hill also spoke on the topic.
"This is a much-loved national event but it has always been very difficult to get additional funding from government.
"Maybe now is the time to look at the British Grand Prix in the context of what is happening elsewhere and realise it is an extremely good shop window for waving our banner and pointing to our brilliance in this field."
