I've received some more information:

"Whilst competing in his MGB at Silverstone on Saturday 5th April, Gerry Thorn suffered an as yet unknown medical problem and pulled off the circuit on the last lap of the Thoroughbred Sportscar race.

The medical team was on the scene immediately and found that Gerry had stopped breathing and had no pulse. He was resuscitated in the Silverstone Medical centre and taken from there to Northampton General Hospital. At 10pm on Saturday night he was transferred to another hospital (Leicester) for further tests and evaluation.

As of Tuesday afternoon, he hasn't yet regained consciousness and remains in a critical condition."

Motorsport News have indicated that after pulling off, his car 'brushed the wall', and that he's currently in a 'stable condition'.

I hope he makes a complete recovery, and my thoughts are with his family at this difficult time.
