Owners of Mallory Park racing circuit in Hinckley in Leicestershire have said it could close when the council presses ahead with legal action. The circuit is having to limit its number of race days to 92 a year.
Last night the executive of Hinckley and Bosworth Borough Council decided unanimously to press ahead to prosecute the circuit after the number of annual noise complaints from residents went up from 8 in 2009 to 153 in 2012.
The circuit at Mallory Park is located in the village of Kirkby Mallory and has been in operation as a motor racing circuit since 1956.
