So is this going to be the last Silverstone? It will be my son and my 20th straight year. Would be nice to keep going but we will have to see what happens.

Will be going in 2019 for the 3rd time. Have previously met others in Budapest and arranged taxi shoes to and from the circuit, so if anyones is interested let me know.

I’m considering the French GP for next year. Has anyone got any ideas as to what if any transport options area available from surrounding towns. Need to know how to get to the circuit and back before I can book any tickets.

Wow, wouldn’t like not having tickets this close to going. I’d be phoning people by now asking where they are. I’ve had my tickets for Hungary and Silverstone for about 10 weeks now.

what sort of tickets have you got just Sunday or all 3 days, Grandstand or GA?
Mick posted a new activity comment 5 years, 10 months ago
Yes its probably the slowest corner on the track, but its also the place where you get the most overtakes and the most contact between cars. We’ve seen some pretty good action there. You can always sit in other grandstands on Friday and have a good look at the cars at all points of the track.

We sat in 6C in 2011 & 2012 and personally think that is a great stand. You want to be as close to the end as possible and as high. We sat right at the top in Row O and in seats 1 & 2, these are right on the end overlooking the corner. There is a big screen opposite and at the bottom of the stand plenty of places to get food and drink.

It really is a good service. They will collect you from your hotel and drop you right outside the entrance to the circuit using a private road, so hardly any traffic at all. At the end of the day there will be loads of taxis waiting to take you back again. Only thing to be aware of is that there are only 3 companies allowed to to use the private…[Read more]

Not aware of any other services other than the free bus service, the train or taxis. By all account the bus and trains aren’t great. We used the taxis last year and they were brilliant. Well worth the cost
Thanks Mick. Taxi it is then, cheers

Hi Miko. If you want to get to see the teams and cars up close the pit lane is open on the Thursday but be warned it will be packed. We used to do the Thursday but the crowds are usually so dense that actually you often get to see very little, so to be honest we now don’t bother. Unfortunately F1 does not give the greatest access to the teams and…[Read more]

Just had an email from GPticketshop.com and they have informed me that the seats I booked in Silver 4 for the 2017 race are confirmed and I will get them.
Not sure if that means the stand will now go back on sale (its currently still showing sold out) or if they are honouring the seats sold before to was taken off sale.

Thanks for the info. I’ve been in touch with GPTickets.com and the guy who deals with Hungary is in Austria this week for the Moto GP. They say they’ll get back to me next week. All i can do is wait. I might just ring the Hungaroring and ask them. I will let you know the outcome.

I’ve emailed GPTicketshop and am awaiting a reply. If they haven’t responded by tomorrow I’ll be on the phone. Struggling to understand how they could take my booking and money and confirm stand and seats purchased and then not provide them, so I’m hoping It’ll be a case of existing bookings are honoured.
Out of curiosity would you mind telling…[Read more]

Thats a bit worrying. We also sat in Silver 4 this year and have booked for next year same stand and seats. We’ve had a confirmation that we’ve paid and got the the stand and seats we asked for. We booked through GPTicketshop.
I agree it was the best views. I will be contacting GPTicketshop Monday to see what they say.

@triples – Thanks for your comments. I’m sure everything is legitimate, but I have to say I’ve been to a few European races and have always had my tickets before I go, and would feel better if they were in my hand. I have emailed them and asked why I can’t get them prior to my arrival in Budapest and am awaiting their reply.
I’ll update this when…[Read more]

Hi Rob, My son and I are also saying near Astoria and could be interested in sharing a taxi to the track on race day.

Thanks for the info Mick. My only concern with with stands 6 is will the cars slow down too much? Though I’ll keep in mind that 6C was recommended.
