I seem to remember that Rallycross was invented when snow stopped all regular BBC sport (Rugby & horse racing) for weeks.Come the day came the thaw and I seem to remember Minis splashing around a muddy field behind the stand at Brands Hatch.
As to Donington my observation was that marshals outnumbered spectators.
