British GT - Donington: Matt Bell has taken the lead in the #17 TF Sport Aston Martin ahead of the sister #27 car of Jody Fannin in the pits. Andrew Jarman, who had been leading in the #27, overshot his pitbox and had to be pushed back, which cost him a few seconds and ultimately the lead of the race.
Joe Osborne in the #888 BMW is now third, having moved ahead of the #30 Ram Racing Mercedes of Lewis Plato at the stops.
Jonny Adam has taken over the #007 Beechdean Aston Martin and is currently ninth - the car had to spend an extra 20 seconds in the pits due to a success penalty for winning last time out at Snetterton. All Adam has to do is finish the race to claim the British GT title along with his co-driver Andrew Howard.
