Talk:Donington Park

message: I've added an article about Wheatcroft selling the circuit to an unknown company.
I also took out Grand Prix Legends as game which features Donington, since it's a third party circuit and it wasn't officially released bt Papyrus. Asendoh 13:50, 7 February 2007 (UTC)

message: Haven't the Esses now been re-named the Foggarty Esses? I was there when It was happened and Carl Foggarty visited the circuit at a WSBK race after his retirement. Was it reverted to it's original name, or is that an out of date map? flakmagnet 16:58, 13 March 2007
Correct - they are now called the Fogarty Esses (note spelling) --Timetrial 15:15, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

message: This article refers to races in 1937 and 1938 as being the "British Grand Prix".  However, the British Grand Prix page says in the table of winners that there was no British Grand Prix between 1928 and 1947 inclusive.  The article on the  1937 and 1938 Grand Prix seasons refer to these races at Donington as the "Donington Grand Prix". Dricherby (talk) 12:38, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: A look at the 1937 Donington Grand Prix race report should help.  The Donington Park article is in error, and has been corrected to say Donington Grand Prix rather than British Grand Prix. The359 (talk) 21:25, 4 July 2008 (UTC)

message: Not just this circuit's page, but all race circuits listed (hopefully), I think some stats on track width should be provided if possible, becaus eit gives a true impression of how useful it could be to "major" categories, which require wider track surfaces.--Amedeo Felix (talk) 10:38, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

message: If, as this Wikipedia entry suggests, the Melbourne Loop was constructed in 1985 then why does it appear on the accompanying map dated 1937?
:They're different loops. The new/current loop (constructed in 1985) joins the rest of the circuit at The Esses and Goddards. The 1937 loop joined the rest of the circuit at Redgate. DH85868993 (talk) 15:56, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

message: The current page shows the lap record details as.........
1:17.474 (Fairuz Fauzy, A1GP - Team Malaysia (Powered by Ferrari), 1993, A1GP)
however, Fauzy's page shows him to be born on October 24, 1982. Was the lap record really set by an 11 year old?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Auf wiedersehen pet (talk • contribs) 19:58, 17 April 2010 (UTC)

message: Right now it seems strange that Donington Grand Prix redirects to this article, given that there is only a passing mention to this race. I'm not sure if it would be best to then add a section in this article for the Grand Prix, or to create a new page (or would it be not making a new page since it's a redirect... I'm not sure how that works!). A7V2 (talk) 07:36, 13 January 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Redirection from Donington Grand Prix 

message: I have added a section on the Donington Grand Prix. It could use more text, maybe taking some from the History section of this page, or perhaps 1937 Donington Grand Prix. I do wonder if it would be better to have its own page, but (as I'm quite new to editing Wikipedia) I don't know what, if anything, needs to be done to make a redirect page into an article.

replies: text: I've added all the content that I put in this article into Donington Grand Prix (which I'll probably add to if no-one beats me to it) and so have removed it from this article. A7V2 (talk) 11:17, 23 February 2019 (UTC)
