Silverstone website is now saying all 3 days sold out.

Tonight, Mclaren's website confirms Kovaleinen will be driving tuesday and wednesday, and Lewis on thursday. Im a bit disappointed as Im going tuesday, but should be good all the same!

2 Adult and 1 Child ticket for Thursday

Am going tue and wed, but with work commitments cannot go Thursday :-(

Obviously with time constraints, I cannot post out, but I only live 15 miles from the circuit and I'm happy for collection either Wednesday evening or Thursday morning.

Will there be food and drink stalls open on the test days:question:

Ferrari were there in force last year. Hamilton was definitely not supposed to be there, officially, but he was. I was in the garage next door. It's a good day, generally, but only the session nearest to the GP. There are others, but they are really not worth going to. Kids were well impressed, but it can be a long day, and their attention does waver quite quickly. There's a long dead period while they all have lunch. For anyone who has never seen an F1 car in action, and heard it, I would strongly recommend it, its pretty mind boggling, and tv just doesn't do it justice.
