Circuit description
Built in 1931 to stage motorcycle events, but closed down during the Second World War, a derelict Donington circuit was bought in 1972 by local businessman and motor sport enthusiast Tom Wheatcroft. It was re-opened in 1977 after huge investment and is now regarded as one of the best circuits in Britain. Located in beautiful countryside near to the village of Castle Donington in the English Midlands, the circuit is set in natural amphitheatre that facilitates excellent viewing possibilities. Its flowing layout is broken up by a slow section of tight corners meaning a combination of smooth racing and good corner speed must be combined with last-gasp braking and hard acceleration.
