The Donington Park Grand Prix circuit is up next for Trackday Championship, with Round 3 of the 2025 season set to take place on Saturday 19 July.
It’s been a short while since the previous TDC round and competitors will surely be itching to get back out on circuit to resume battle, with both class podiums and important championship points on offer in Leicestershire
Reigning Champion Nicole Drought has started the campaign in fantastic fashion, securing two hard-fought overall victories at Snetterton and Silverstone. The Motion Motorsport driver resultingly has the lead at the top of the Class B championship standings, but with Matt Swaffer (Swaffer Racing) just eight points behind. The pair have enjoyed some fantastic duels so far this season and will be looking to resume the fight at the front this time around.
There’s an eight-point gap between the leading two teams in Class C too. As things stand, Abbitt Motorsport’s Dan Abbitt holds the narrow advantage over the PRO-AM Racing Clio, with the Algar Racing BMW Compact only four points adrift in third. Elsewhere, in Class D, Stephen Docker has opened up a strong lead against his fellow class rivals after two outstanding races.
With five rounds still remaining this year, and each of the afore-mentioned teams amongst the upcoming entry list, it’s all still very much to play for.
The full TDC Standings can be viewed here.
Donington Park is a favourite amongst the TDC paddock and for good reason. Tricky corners combine with surging straights, presenting a unique test for competitors to enjoy over the course of a 45-minute pit-stop race.
The use of the full Grand Prix circuit for the upcoming meeting means drivers will also need to contend with the Melbourne Hairpin, which offers another challenge, but crucially also provides an extra opportunity for competitors to overtake their rivals. Strong, consistent pace is required by those looking to finish at the pointy end of the results.
It promises to be a great day of racing.
