It's claimed both Jaguar Land Rover and the entrepreneur Lawrence Tomlinson have given up on securing deals, which could have provided much needed funding for the circuit's current owners - the British Racing Drivers' Club (BRDC).

BRDC says it won't comment on the sale of the circuit until any potential deal is in place and we've contacted Jaguar and Mr Tomlinson for comment.

National League North side Brackley Town will be in tonight's draw for the FA Cup second round after they drew 2-2 at League One Gillingham.

Frank Nouble pulled a goal back, then fired in his second of the game just before half-time, but Brackley held on for the replay.
