The main thing to be prepared for at the British Grand Prix is noise - modern Formula One cars are incredibly noisy - if you are sensitive to noise, we would recommend that you take some ear plugs with you.
The British Grand Prix is very popular, on race day there will be up to 200,000 people at Silverstone - that's a lot of people so be prepared for queues and for crowds - make sure you use the map below to arrange places to meet up with your friends and family in case you become separated. 
Although there will be large screens to view the action away from where you are standing, it is worthwhile to take either a small portable television or a radio with you. The noise from the racing can make it very difficult to hear the public address system.
The weekend is expected to be very hot and sunny, so make sure you take your suncream and sunglasses.
If you do not have a grandstand seat, it's probably a good idea to take a blanket and folding chairs.
Once you have found a good vantage point, you wont want to leave your spot, so it is worth taking a cool box and/or a flask. |

With 200,000 people at Silverstone on race day, it is a good idea to arrange where to meet friends and family.
We would suggest that you either arrange to meet at one of the entrance gates or alternatively to meet close to the footbridge across the circuit.
The footbridge entrance is situated between the pit straight grandstand A and Copse Corner grandstand A (see map below).

Silverstone is within easy travelling distance of Birmingham, Coventry and London Luton, London Heathrow, London Gatwick and London Stansted Airports.

A shuttle bus service will operate between Milton Keynes and Northampton railway stations and the circuit. Please check back here nearer to the Grand Prix date for details of shuttle bus times.
As traffic in the Silverstone area is always exceptionally heavy during the Grand Prix period, and especially on race day itself, we would recommend that you aim to arrive at either Milton Keynes or Northampton station at least 2 hours before the time you wish to arrive at Silverstone circuit. |
