Elise Trophy latest - Martin Donnelly to race in Elise Trophy at Donington!

Ex Lotus Formula 1 driver Martin Donnelly will race a class A Lotus Elise in the Elise Trophy races at the MSVR Blast in the Park at Donington Park on 1st-2nd September.
Donnelly made his F1 debut for the Arrows team at the French GP in 1989. In 1990 he drove for Lotus, alongside Derek Warwick. A horrific accident at Jerez, which he was very lucky to survive, ended his promising Formula 1 career.
His presence is a very exciting addition to the grid for round 7 of the 2007 Elise Trophy series, where we continue our 100% record with another full entry list of 36 cars.
Further details (runners & riders, timetable etc.)

The MSVR Blast in the Park is headlined by the penultimate rounds of the 2007 Visma Formula Palmer Audi Championship and the Lotus on Track Elise Trophy. Also on the bill is the Porsche Open and Club Series, Powertec Radical Challenge, Easytrack Production BMW Championship, York Fitness Post Historic Touring Car Championship, Ibis Packaging Classic Group One Touring Car Championship, T Cars, BARC/CTCRC Pre '93 Touring Car Series and the BARC/CTCRC Classic Saloon & Historic Touring Car Series.

Round 6 of the Elise Trophy was held at a wet Castle Combe in July.
