I'm a yank here in the States. My GF is British and we went to Donington in 04 for MotoGP. Experienced most of the listed complaints. Yes the car park is in the grass but so what! Won't asphalt crack and crumble especially being subjected to the constant "English Summer" weather that occurs there in the Midlands. My biggest gripe was the toilet facilities(WC)but then again with everyone drinking that much beer what do you expect to happen? Fix the ingress and egress out of there and I'd be happy. We were fortunate to get to the M-1 early to avoid the mess. If and when the upgrade is completed we'll return again. Quit whining you should suffer the "racing" we're stuck with here in the USA!
