Decent racing today

But BTCC legend Frank Sytner's currently ill in hospital after suffering a heart attack at the wheel during the Donington Historic Festival this weekend

I hope you don't mind me splitting this. It's shocking news.

The marshals on the scene said he had no pulse and had stopped breathing. More here:

I'm pleased to say that I've just taken a call from the man Simon Hadfield and he tells me that they brought Frank out of the induced coma about an hour or so ago, and he recognised everyone in the room! However he began to get a bit confused, probably wondering why he was not still behind the wheel of his Lola so he was sedated once more. Simon tells me that his alarm was largely due to his current inability to communicate effectively, but the upshot is that the prognosis had improved quite dramatically for him, I'm relieved to tell you all.
