    In reply to: Ben Weaver posted an update in the group Going to the Belgian Grand Prix at Spa-Francorchamps Where is the podium viewed from at Spa….is it on the pit straight or the straight after turn 1? View

    Really? I thought it was above the GP2 pits after turn 1? According to a ticketing website this is also the case? Remember there are two different pits and grids?

      Last year, the podium was on the pit straight. I doubt it will have changed for this year. Enjoy!

    Is the podium on the pit straight here or is it on the straight where Gold 2 is?

    I was a little disappointed to hear that my Gold weekend tickets only allow me to sit in my particular gold stand seats for the whole weekend. At Silverstone I had the same level tickets and you can go into any […]

    Hi,

    Does anyone know roughly how far the walk is from yellow car parking to Gold 1. The wife is nearly 8 months pregnant and just want to be able to tell her it’s not that far!!!

    Cheers

    We sat in Luffield 2 years ago but took in Becketts, Copse and the old pit straight for practices and quali. Last year we had Platinum Pit Straight and took in Abbey as well for the practices. This year we decided on Platinum Club B so see the podium and the pit entry. Will roam around for practices and quali as usual. Does look like another sell…[Read more]

    Luckily we have Gold 1 tickets so hopefully it will be a simple walk from Yellow parking to the seats. My wife loves F1 and we’ll be hitting Silverstone again this year but it will be my son’s first taste. Front row should be good for the action and no one in front of us but as you say we are exposed to the elements!

    Got my front row Gold 1 weekend tickets through the post along with Yellow Parking. Front row. Taking my wife who goes with me every year to Silverstone (who will be 8 months pregnant) and my 10 year old son for his first piece of F1 action! Cannot wait. It’s my first GP out of Silverstone and I am driving up on the Thursday and staying in…[Read more]

      Like you my son and I go to Silverstone every year and love it. We also ventured to Spa in 2010 and its a great track. You can’t see as much as you can at Silverstone as a lot of the track runs around the hills and throught the trees, but i’m sure you’ll have a great time.

      A couple of things to note though. Firstly take plenty of waterproof…[Read more]

          Where are you sitting at Silverstone? We are in Abbey this year, and camping at woodlands. I think over the years we have sat in virtually every grandstand going. Looks like it will be another sell out crowd this year, can’t wait. Then we are off to Monza, went there last year and loved it, and the weather is great.

    There is not a pit walk for mere mortals but there is one for those richer than your average man…..you see them sauntering down the pits every year.

    As for getting on the track after the race everyone did it […]
