Ecstasy, agony and disbelief

I had a fabulous day out at Donnington Park that had everything. First getting out was really easy it seems that at last the car park problems are sorted.

Ecstasy – watching Scott Redding show maturity well beyond his year to take a fabulous win. Such a star at 15 and a level headed young lad.

Agony – never have I seen a crowd go so flat as quickly once the realisation that Toseland had fell at the first corner. But what courage that he finished when most would have just given up and gone home. Good luck for next year James – I for one will be there cheering you on.

Disbelief at the stupidity of the infield crown opposite Starkies who on the last lap invaded the track before the end of the race putting at risk not only themselves but the riders.

This could not be blamed only on the youth but whole families with mums and dads dragging kids in front of motorcycles still racing.

This sort of act could end it for Donnington and spoil it for the majority who know how to act like adults and not stupid ignorant children.
