After Donington was sold to a new consortium earlier this week, Damien Smith is confident that one of his favourite tracks is back in safe hands...
I've always had a soft spot for Donington Park. It's a perfect bit of land for a race circuit, with hardly a level surface around the place. They'd never let you build a racetrack on such beautiful, rolling parkland these days.
That's why I was delighted to hear the news this week that Donington is under new ownership - and that the new company now running the place recognises its potential as a world-class motorsport venue. Anything that protects such a historic circuit has to be good news.
