Donington
I can't view this, but apparently it shows the sad state of affairs of what was a nice track?

Yes it is a very sad situation. I've driven Donington a few times and it's one of the better tracks in the UK, and it's such a waste seeing it in it's current state. What annoys me is that it doesn't look like it would take too much to get it but up and running again.
Seems such a waste to me.

Donington owner Kevin Wheatcroft has reached an agreement in principle for Worcestershire-based Adroit Group to run the circuit on a 25-year lease.
It is anticipated an initial sum up to £2 million is to be spent on the track by the end of year in a bid to win back its FIA grade two licence that will again allow it to host motorsport.
