This weekend was the 2010 British Grand Prix at Silvertstone (yay). Once again my Dad and I went to enjoy the racing and a few beers @ Silverstone Golf Club who put on camping, beer and food for the weekend. The racing was good and McLaren pulled a great result out of the bag (2nd & 4th) after dismal practice and qualifying sessions. The car just would not go around corners! We didn't manage to get a pit tour but hopefully will manage to get one for Monza (My 30th Birthday if you are reading this Team McLaren!). The support races provided some good entertainment (as usual) and the new track layout seemed to work well (the drivers didn't like the bumps, but they were good for the crowd!).
As usual I took my camera and made an attempt at getting some good photos. One of these days I am going to have to get one of those BIG lenses that the pro's have (and a pass to allow me in front of the safety fencing!) then I might get some good shots!
Here is what I did manage to get ….
The Red Arrows
The Red Devils
The Porsches
GP2 / GP3
Formula 1
The view from our seats
Roll on Monza (and then next year!) and come on Lewis & Jenson. More 1 – 2's needed including a McLaren 1 – 2 in the Drivers Championship at the end of the year!
