2026 Round 7: Donington Park Preview
<p>Donington could be the most chaotic British GT weekend of the season - and the forecast is already threatening to make the title fight explode. Ellis and Dom break down who really has the edge in GT3 and GT4, where the success penalties reshape the grid, and why one surprise entry could throw the championship into complete chaos. With wet weather potentially flipping everything on its head, the boys dig into the cars and drivers most likely to thrive, struggle, or get caught in the wrong place at the wrong time. They compare the Lamborghini, McLaren, BMW, Aston Martin, Mercedes, and Ginetta packages at Donington, weigh up the impact of the Snetterton penalties, and argue through the most likely pole sitters, race winners, and weekend standouts. You'll hear why Barwell looks dangerously strong, why the Ginetta could be the class of GT4 again, and why a one-off Innovation entry might do more than just learn on debut. They also make their boldest crazy predictions yet, including a potential red-flag-filled race and a new team immediately shaking up the championship battle. Perfect for anyone following British GT, title fights, wet-weather racing, or anyone who wants to know who to back before the lights go out at Donington. If you want sharp predictions, real paddock insight, and a few risky calls that could age very badly, this one is essential listening.</p>
