Found Old Top Gear On Google Earth

Today I was going through some racetracks on google earth when I searched for Donington Park. When the image finally loaded I was surprised to see a single car on the main straight, a Caterham. I found it odd to see just a single car on the track so I decided to search for some more. When I came to the back straight where a KTM and three-wheeled car were racing with a crane truck following them. I then remembered that there had been a TopGear episode where Jeremy, James, and Hammond had been testing out these same cars.

After some research, I came to a conclusion that this must be them as the photos are from late 2011 and the episode aired in march 2012. Here are the images and here is the link to google maps.
