Talking F1 Testing @ Silverstone - Tu/We/Th 13-15th June - FREE

The next, and I believe last of the year, F1 testing session at Silverstone is in the week directly after the British Grand Prix. Tuesday through to Thursday the 13th to 15th of June. Unfortunately I'm away on mi jollies so I can't make it, but should anyone else wish to...Details.

Eight of us were at the last one and all agree it is a superb day out, especially as it's free If you've never seen the speed, the direction changes, and most amazingly heard the noise of F1 then get yourself along.

Do you have to apply for tickets or do you just turn up?

Just turn up mate.. Most of the course is blocked off, but as soon as you get in you're at 'Bridge'. You can sit/stand right at the Luffield complex and then you can get on to the main straight and sit anywhere in the Grandstand. You can go as far as Copse where the turn in is incredible..

Best spots are right on the exit of Luffield (as you can get pretty close) or sitting in the main stand opposite the pits with a beer and just marvel at 6(ish) teams testing all day long...
