Hi all,

I have been lucky enough to get tickets to the btcc at silverstone, question is where will be the best place for a spectator on the national circuit?

I've never been to a race event so want,to,make sure we.can see a decent amount of action.
Thanks

BTCC on the National Circuit will be fun as it is the shortest of the Silverstone track layouts, meaning the cars stay close together. Personally, I have never like Silverstone much from a spectators point of view, as it is very flat so you can't see a great deal of what's going on. Buying a "roving grandstand" ticket is a good idea as it allows you to move about and find a good spot with a view of much more of the circuit.

As for where to sit, I would try around the Brooklands, Luffield, Woodcote area as you will see the cars braking from top speed into a very tight series of corners and then off down towards Copse.

National (shortest) circuit should be fun for BTCC, especially if it's raining!
Maggotts is a good place, or the end of the Wellington Straight for hard braking into Brooklands and Luffield.
Enjoy. :thumbsup:

Or watch this and make your own mind up.
