Police confirm biker has died at Donington Park

A 25-year-old professional motorcyclist has died at Donington Park, police have confirmed.

No Limits Trackdays issued a statement on its website on Sunday, June 21.

The motorcyclist, who has been named as Ben Godfrey in the statement, died after falling from his bike at Donington Park on Sunday, June 21.

Leicestershire Live reports that Leicestershire Police confirmed they had been informed of the death.

In the statement, a spokesman said: "During the second advanced group session of our No Limits Trackday today at Donington Park, Ben Godfrey, 25, collided with another bike on the approach to Redgate and fell from his machine.

"Tragically he suffered serious injuries and despite immediate medical assistance trackside, he succumbed to his injuries shortly after."

Mark Neate, No Limits Trackdays Director said; “I am so desperately sad that Ben died from the injuries he sustained. Ben really was a fantastic young man and friends with so many people in the paddock, he was always smiling and had time for everyone. He was very excited for the start of the season and had taken part in many trackdays in the last month. Our thoughts are with his family, his partner Jordan and his team mates and friends”
