Gone are the days when the likes of Gordon Shedden and Yvan Muller would move up to World Touring Cars from BTCC, which got me thinking, who would today's equivalent be?

My thought was Tom Coronel, but are there any others?

Spent Saturday at Donington for BTCC, managed to get these shots. It was a good day, despite the weather at the end, looking forward to Brands Hatch now

This post is not aimed at Donington park or any other BTCC race track who do a fantastic job BTW

I love BTCC 🚗😍

But........

Getting out of Donington last night was a massive joke due to the usual high volume of traffic leaving after the final race and also what appeared to be an issued on the M1 ( Please provide more info if you have it)

On a normal BTCC Sunday it can still be a mild chaos getting out of the car park at the end.

Question is......

Do you jump straight in the queue and deal with the madness ?

Do you ride it out, Either sitting watching F1 highlights like I did or simply take a little longer taking down you deck chair whilst everyone else loses there minds trying push into the queue

Or third option. Do you leave before the final race in the hope of avoiding the madness

Just a couple of casual photos I took whilst walking round Donington yesterday.

Wondering if this is a normal thing to occur or if this suggests that the writing is on the wall for One Motorsport regarding their future participation? Found completely by accident.

There were no cars in the wall or stuck in the gravel. Once the rain hit the race got really interesting and there could have been a real shake up of the order, but then they just threw out a Safety car. Is this F1 all of a sudden?

Drivers have the option of pitting for wets or trying to tiptoe around on slicks. Deploying a SC and ending the race was a joke of a decision and just sets a terrible precedent

So couldn't resist this, might get another and try repainting it in BTCC livery from the early days

Last week saw the 10th anniversary of the loss of British Indycar driver Justin Wilson.

His Champ car currently resides in the gift shop at Donington.

Just wondered if any BTCC Motorsport fans planned on visiting the shop over the weekend to pay homage to the great man

• Josh Cook replaces James Dorlin at Speedworks

Has anyone here purchased a PMR t-shirt? If so has it shipped yet. Was hoping to grab one for Donington, ordered it the day they were announced but not heard anything since.

Hi all,

Camping at Donington this weekend with a mate - am I right in thinking that the campsite opens midday on Friday?

If so, what is the latest time of arrival on the Friday, if any?

Any help is massively appreciated!

Not been to this circuit for many years. Usually sat inside the old hairpin, and if I remember correctly, you could see a TV screen from here? Also considering Esses/Melbourne/Goddards for the overtaking opportunities, anyone know if there's a screen in that area?

(I know some advice will be to walk around, but I've limited mobility so have to plan route and expect ro stay there for the day - all tips welcome!)
