Silverstone Circuit Grandstand Guide
Silverstone offers a wide range of grandstands, each catering to a unique viewing experience and budget. Here's a breakdown of the options.
Becketts Grandstand: One of the top options to consider is the Becketts grandstand. This high-speed sequence of corners is a true test of driving prowess. Here, you will witness drivers navigate the high-speed esses of Maggotts and Becketts, leaving you wide-eyed.
Stowe A, B, C Grandstands: These grandstands provide a view of Stowe Corner, one of the best overtaking spots on the circuit. While set back slightly due to the large run-off area, a big screen ensures you don't miss any of the action.
Hamilton Straight Grandstand: Here you can experience the drama of the start/finish and pit-stops from the heart of the action. This grandstand offers great views, with the best seats located in block 2, closest to the start of the straight.
Club Corner Grandstand: Witness the final turn of the circuit before the drivers thunder down the straight. Club Corner offers a great vantage point for the entire race, with the bonus of prime views of the podium celebrations in Section 2 after the chequered flag falls.
Abbey Grandstand: Located at the end of the Hamilton Straight and next to the Abbey corner, this grandstand provides a distant view of the start/finish line, pit-lane activity, as well as the action through Abbey corner into Farm corner.
Luffield Grandstand: Positioned at the slow Luffield corner, this grandstand offers a prolonged view of where cars emerge from Wellington Straight before braking into Luffield and accelerating down the National Pits Straight.
Woodcote A, B, C Grandstands: For the best view from this grandstand, consider Woodcote A. This stand provides a clear view of the Luffield corner before the cars accelerate out of Woodcote and down the National Pits Straight.
Village A & B Grandstands: Here you can experience the drama of the Village and Loop corners unfold right before your eyes from the Village grandstands. Village B, the more expensive and covered option, offers a prime, close-up view of these challenging corners. This grandstand also boasts big-screen viewing and easy access to the lively Village stage, a hub of entertainment throughout the race weekend.
National Pits Straight Grandstand: This covered grandstand overlooks the former pits area and offers big-screen viewing for the ultimate race experience.
Copse A, B, C Grandstands: Nestled outside the high-speed Copse Corner and at the end of the National Pits Straight, these covered grandstands provide great views of the action. Opt for Copse A or B for the best views, and enjoy the close-up action as drivers tackle this challenging right-hander.
Vale Grandstand: Here you have two options - Band 8 seats ensure an unobstructed view of the slow Vale Corner, the final Club Corner, and the International Pits Straight's end, while Band 9 expands your view to include Stowe, Vale, Club, and Farm Corners, along with Hangar Straight.
