Mixed day at Donington Park today, good weather but too many people, too many wire fences. Never seen so many spectators for qualifying. Anyhow a few random images, unfortuantely not much variety due to the conditions stated above.

I was there yesterday also. Again, too many fences and a lot of people! Never seen so many L lenses as well. Very jealous!
Nice pics btw. I started at Foggy Esses for morning then made my way to Macleans for the afternoon.

Thanks for the positive comments. The weather, Ducati's (Stoner's?) strategy and the failure to keep off of the painted lines made it a strange race. Glad I watched in from the comfort of my armchair.

Great pictures. I went on friday and it was packed then and yes i did see all the extra fencing doubled up in some parts...........but then again its to be expected with all the morons having a track invasion every year. Rant over

Still didn't stop the morons though!!

Very nice.

But only in the UK do the organisers get upset about track invasions after the event. At places like Spa and Monza, its actually planned for.

I guess it's the nanny state that we live in here in UK with health and safety and "phone a claim" etc etc.

It's a sad day when MotoGP leaves Donington for Silverstone, but somehow I cannot see Donington finished for F1 in 2010
