British Superbike bosses have issued a statement concerning the will-it-won't-it saga of whether Donington Park will be able to host the proposed BSB round at the end of this month. Yesterday, the track CEO Simon Gillett said that it was full steam ahead but today, MSVR boss Jonathan Palmer has issued a warning that unless the track is up to spec by May 15, they will pull the event.
The statement reads:

In light of Donington Park’s statement released to MCN on Thursday evening, MSVR must clarify its position and correct certain inaccuracies.
On Tuesday afternoon (28 April) MSVR received Donington Park’s firm assurance that the necessary works required by the regulatory bodies to restore run-off between McLeans and Coppice were underway and would be completed by no later than 21 May.  
 
Jonathan Palmer wrote to Donington Park on 29 April, confirming MSVR’s position in the following terms:
 
“Donington is a great circuit and an important part of the BSB calendar, so it will be very disappointing to everyone if the BSB event cannot take place.  I note your assurances in relation to the works to reinstate the run-off, and the letter from your contractors.  You proposed that MCRCB inspect the circuit on 15 May, and I must make clear our position that unless MCRCB is able to issue a track licence on that date or report to MSVR that it has absolute confidence that it will be able to do so in advance of the BSB round, we will withdraw the round from Donington Park. I hope that Donington is now on course to be able to host the excellent round of BSB that we expect.”
 
If Donington Park’s ability to host the round is called into doubt at any time, we will look to implement alternative arrangements.  For the moment, MSVR is pleased that Donington Park is finally taking positive and urgent steps towards resolving the concerns of its regulatory bodies, and very much hope that it will be able to deliver a successful round of the Championship in three weeks’ time.
