A 21-year-old man from Tonbridge has been arrested after a normal road car was driven on to the track at Brands Hatch, UK during a Fun Cup championship race.
On Saturday afternoon during a race meeting at Brands Hatch, an unauthorised private car gained access to the live circuit while the Fun Cup race was in progress.

Officers have today (Monday, June 16) arrested a 21-year-old man from Tonbridge on suspicion of false imprisonment. He remains in police custody."
