Nice one Magictap! I was located at Copse. Fantastic race, gutted for Hamilton but at least Rosberg brought it home. Can't wait until next year, gonna shell out for a grandstand ticket this time Smile

Coach was really early as we had no traffic on the way in. Ended up arriving at 5:50am, got in when gates opened & went for a big ol' walk around the circuit.

was epic mate...louder than i expected, but also slower than on tv!!

by **Matt** Sun 30 Jun 2013 - 21:15

I thought that at Spa. The direction change isn't as great as it looks on TV and marginally less quick than, say, and Audi R18

by Guest Sun 30 Jun 2013 - 21:20

yeah, i was expecting change of direction at Becketts to blow me away....didn't!

I must go to Le Mans ;O)

pirelli needs to get their MFing ish together.

by Guest Sun 30 Jun 2013 - 21:33

+1 sir ;O)

In all honesty watching the P1's through Abbey/Farm and into the Loop is pretty cool I thought. Also through Becketts.

F1 cars are pretty cool don't get me wrong but I think prototypes have the edge in visual appeal and dynamics.

Oh, no, didn't go to Silverstone for free. It cost my wife loads as a present for my 40th!! The sim thing was free.....

Nice one Matt, you destroyed them, 1.7s quicker than the next guy! Very Happy

by Guest Mon 1 Jul 2013 - 19:33

Lol, i was surprised, there really are proper race drivers on that list!

by Ax4x Kane Mon 1 Jul 2013 - 19:48

Ticket prices are slightly lower for 2014. Probably because they underachieved in ticket sales. Need to wear a hat next time, my face is more blistered than a Mercedes rear tyre.

OUCH......... Pirelli are blaming F1 teams now for the blowouts, saying they are not using the tires properly.

Hankook?

The DTM races this year have been pretty good.

Ricciardo is really laying claim to that Red Bull seat, with Vergne only qualifying P16. Hamilton pulled it out of the bag! Very Happy

Rosberg paying the price for biding his time in the pits. Quite amusing seeing Perez down the grid Wink

Race Prediction:
1.Vettel
2.Hamilton
3.Webber

Raikkonen no longer in the running for Red Bull seat so looks like Ricciardo and Da Costa will move up.
