Silverstone is the home of British Motorsport and although the track itself may differ substantially since the early years, the essence of Silverstone still remains unchanged. A fast and demanding circuit, designed for racers and track day enthusiasts alike.

The Silverstone Grand Prix circuit is a 3.66 miles, 18 turn, high speed and technical track featuring high-G turns such as Copse, iconic fast flowing corners like Maggotts and Becketts, and the long Hangar Straight. Key technical areas include the tight Vale chicane and the final Club corner, demanding precise braking and smooth acceleration.

"This being the home of British Motorsport it is obviously going to be a fantastic circuit, which it is. With the addition of the new loop section to the track, it is now an extremely high speed lap, with some seriously fast and challenging corners plus some very technical hairpins which can make or break the lap. Silverstone entices drivers to push a little harder than normal due to the vast expanse of runoff it offers, but just remember that grass really doesn’t slow you down that much before you hit the wall! Take special care on the exit of Club Corner and Woodcote especially in the wet. The tendency for most drivers who make the same mistake at both of these tricky corners, is to turn in too early, and when they reach the mid part of the corner they realise that the track is narrowing, so they lift off which switches the weight transfer to the rear and then you have a big slide on your hands and unfortunately it usually ends in tears."
