[Red Herring]

There sure were.... in their defence, and I'm not a great sympathizer of those that chuck it on trackdays, conditions were testing at the start. I love Donnington because you don't actually need to be going that fast to get that great smooth feeling you get when you link Redgate to Mcleans cleanly without once travelling upright and I just concentrated on enjoying that rather than a fast lap time. It was just to cold and greasy, not really wet enough for wets although most did put them on, but whatever tyre you were on was going to slide eventually so I stayed on my slicks and slid a whole lot earlier than most.....
