Donington is named the home of WorldSBK having hosted the first round in 1988. With a track length of 4.023km we get 23 laps of racing action in Leicestershire. With 12 turns the Melbourne Loop, Redgate and Dunlop Straight are prime overtaking opportunities for our riders. Our fastest lap was set by now MotoGP rider - Toprak Razgatlioglu with a 1:24.629s in 2024 with BMW. Could anyone on the grid steal this record from the Turkish rider?
