Where to get British GP Tickets
My daughter and her fiance are trying to get tickets to the British GP and ideally wanted a day ticket with seating on Stowe but direct from
Silverstone the only way to get the grandstand tickets is if you buy a 3-day entry ticket.
She's a bit concerned about buying tickets over the internet from unknown companies in case the tickets are not OK when she gets to the circuit
so can anone recommend any reliable sources?
John.

Check the website again.
Sunday tickets for stowe B and C grandstands are £169 on the silverstone site.
3 day ticket is £199.
One day tickets:
Friday: your ticket includes a roving grandstand seat.
Saturday: your general admission ticket includes access to the venue and viewing from any bank area.
Sunday: your grandstand ticket includes a reserved seat in an allocated grandstand. Your general admission ticket includes access to the venue and
viewing from any bank area.

For the price difference, you may as well get the weekend ticket. On Sunday, you pretty much get to your seat and stay there till the race is done -
everywhere's really busy and the cars go by every minute and a half and are gone again...
If you go on the Friday or Saturday, you can wander round the whole circuit, watch the support races and quali, and there's a bit of space to
stretch out...

I'd recommend the bookf1 website. Friend of a friend runs it

Although it looks as though you can get tickets from the Silverstone website when you try it take you to another screen asking you to 'phone
which is when they suggested the 3-day ticket as an option. May be the best solution but I'm not sure they want to spend £400 (It's
actually a birthday present from my Daughter to her Fiance).

Just looked at the bookf1 website but both Stowe B and Stowe C have only one ticket available unless you go for the 3-day ticket option.
