And after that the FOA gave the organisers of the race three options: 1, the organisers will keep on organiseing the race. 2, Belgium will cancel the race and pay Ecclestone's FOA 18 million euro's in compensation. 3, Ecclestone will receive full control for 2008, 2009 and 2010 and receive compensation.
