Welcome.....

I am sure a quick search around tenths will provide lots of useful info but as a starter;

sense of humour - always useful

then the usual
waterproof coat/trousers, gloves (good work / garden gloves/gauntlets or welders type), hat(s), food & drink, good footwear (work boots type of thing), bag to put it all in (big bin bag to put the bag in if it rains), sun cream, etc, etc

avoid colours that clash with flags

there will be more .....

have fun and enjoy

Bring two senses of humour so you've got a spare one when the first one breaks or runs out

Being serious for a moment: bring as much to drink as you can realistically fit in the bag. It looks like it's going to be warm and reasonably dry, so keeping topped up is a good idea. Hip flasks don't count until after the racing has finished though!

Morning Simon,
Welcome and I hope you have a great time this weekend with us at Donington.
I guess you will be easy to spot in your ultra bright shiny new overalls?
Just a tip, the cars will be on the balck stuff and not going over the grass and through the trees as to what you are used to!! Hang on though, this is touring cars so anything can happen!!
Enjoy your weekend.
Regards
Simon B
