The SpeCTator should be qualifying in the top 10 on the grid
I believe it was 13 years ago to the day that JP, John Britten and Peter Ogden acquired the four circuits. All were in advanced decay.

It was rumoured to be a very sound acquisition based on the price paid and at first it seemed MSV had cornered the market for red and white paint!

The MSV effect would be seen by competitors, marshals, spectators, corporate hospitality and track days organisers.

The sound investment was backed by by a good business plan and good people.
It was further strengthened by not getting involved with F1.

If MSV had not acquired the 4 four circuits, motor racing in this country would not be a strong as it is today.

This latest move is a good for Donington and MSV.

And when JP stands down hopefully Jolyon and Will are waiting in the wings!
