That's a price hike alright. I guess this is Silverstones final chance to grab some profit from the British GP. Also, the last race at Silverstone and if Donington goes pear-shaped it could be the last British GP. All this and Lewis being the defending champion it all adds up. The thing is, corporate tickets will be taking a lot too. Time to get friendly with a sponsor. :) Woah! That’s a price hike alright.

Actually make that two, the other-half won't be either! Two adult tickets and a car parking pass cost me a reasonable £298 when purchased in October 2007. Tickets were for Farm, and these have only recently become available on the Silverstone website as they were not included in their 'Early Bird' offer for some reason. Two adult tickets and a car park pass is £478 for 2009. £220 more and a price hike of around 63% compared to what I paid last year! For a lot cheaper I can go to Spa and get a general admission ticket which will offer me a better view than any GA ticket ever will at Silverstone. Plus they have waffles as well. Win win.
