Donington BTCC
Thanks to all the Marshals at the BTCC meeting at Donington this weekend for all the hard work in tidying up all the incidents and for putting up with the late finish, caused by the long delay in the Formula Ford race.
All of the officials in race control appreciate all you did, in disgusting weather, to make sure all the competitors got their races. Fred and all the other Senior Officials. |

Hello Fred from the other side of the world...
Our TV grabs of the incident were far to short to draw any conclusions...but like most, I am interested to know what happened (that is, why did the car stop abruptly...if it did (transaxle lock-up, electrical etc), and possibly too quick to even be covered by Flags in the atrocious weather. Obviously, if it is subject to an investigation this is just a place marker for whatever can be released in future. More importantly, our TV feed reported that both Drivers were AOK |

As this forum is open to everyone, I am unable to comment about the incident or the drivers condition. I know it is on YouTube and probably Facebook & Twitter but I refuse to subscribe to them.
