Anyone know of a video - how to drive donnington? I found one for Brands earlier in the year ( http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=bUd8FU_LbUU ) which was useful.
Having one for Donnington would be cool to get an idea of the place before getting there.

I wouldn't be so arrogant to say that these are "how to drive around Donington", but they may be of help.
Some vids from last December's day.

Donington:
nail it, forget what gear to take the first right in, miss the apex. Nail it, keep it nailed, think "musn't lift" for craner. Lift anyway. ****, brake really hard for old hair pin, tail out. Nail it. wave at the spitfire, wave at bluebird. remember to go left. Go straight on if it's raining. Right. Wonder what he **** all that smoke is behind the car as you go off the edge of the rumble strip. Up the hill, shit that's blind! Slowly unwind the right. Remember not to unwind that much next time! Nail it, keep it nailed, brake too early, power through the chicane, over cook it on the exit and smash into the pit wall.
lap done.

Sounds easy enough, remembering to wave at the bluebird and spitfire might be tricky!
