A Donington Historic Festival Review with Nigel Greensall
Prolific historics racer Nigel Greensall joins Group National Editor Stephen Lickorish for the latest edition of the Autosport National Podcast to look back on the Donington Historic Festival.
Greensall shared five different cars with John Spiers during last weekend's event and, although he came close, did not quite take any victories (https://www.autosport.com/national/news/f4-racer-reynolds-scores-remarkable-cortina-win-at-donington-historic-festival/10720183/).
As well as reflecting on those races, Greensall discusses the various - and surprising - challenges of swapping between such different cars and the important skills that racing in historic machines can teach drivers.
The pair also pick out some of the other highlights from the Donington meeting and examine the new GT3 Legends series and how it is important historic racing organisers continue to innovate.

2025 British GT Silverstone 500 And TOCA Support Review
A busy weekend of UK motorsport is the focus of the latest Autosport National Podcast as the blue-riband British GT Silverstone 500 and the TOCA support series openers are reviewed.
Editor-in-Chief Kevin Turner is joined by British GT correspondent Ed Hardy and Group National Editor Stephen Lickorish to review all of the main talking points.
They discuss the ominous British GT points lead the 2 Seas Mercedes pairing of Kiern Jewiss and Charles Dawson now enjoy after finishing second in a crazy race where the unusual strategy of the guesting Paradine BMW duo Dan Harper and Darren Leung helped them join an elite club of two-time Silverstone 500 winners.
A dominant display from Freddie Slater in GB3 is also examined, alongside a far closer GB4 battle.
Then, at Donington Park, there was a surprise early leader of the Porsche Carrera Cup GB standings, while British Formula 4 was as unpredictable as expected.
