    British Grand Prix 2011

    Time has come for Silverstone to welcome the F1 Circus back to town for the annual event!

    Who's going?
    Why do you like this event?
    What do you enjoy most?
    Where will you be watching from?

    Who is going to win?

    New Pit complex will be in use for the 1st time after all off Bernies pressure

    I worked at 11 events with a few Teams and done 2 years helping the FIA....
    Staying away this year, probably watch from the living room with a few irish cider and a barbee

    Enjoy

    I can't wait Alan I've been as a spectator for the last 4 years, but this year I declined my usual freebie invite. I really can't be bothered with the nonsense of being nice in corporate hospitality I'd rather watch it at home with my lad
    The changes to the pits should make it more interesting.
    Who's going to win? Well, Vettel will get pole, so he'll probably win it too barring any problems with the car or crashes. I'd prefer to see Mark win, but I don't think it's going to happen this year. As for the two Macca boys, they are way off the pace now, I think Ferrari are close to Red Bull than McL at present.

    Our friends the FIA have tightened up some specific regulations in an attempt to slow down the RBR duo.... it will effect everyone though so probably not much change up front,
    It might cos a surprise or 2 in Qualy but i dont think much will change come sunday!

    Worst thing about Silverstone is the parking and the journey in and out!!

    I've used the Park n Ride just off J16 for the last couple of years, the buses are great, takes about 30 mins each way and they leave every 5 mins or so

    Looking forward to this race, its the first time in a while to be able to make time to watch F1!! It would be great to be able to go to Silverstone and experience the atmosphere, never done before but will do in the future.

    Will be interesting what is decided with tyres as track half wet, half dry. Hopefully there will be some rain!! Makes better races like Canada!!

    I would love to see Di Resta finish in a high position and have Button up there mixing it up with the Ferrari's and Red Bull's!

    Come on!!

    Too many pit-crew cockups !

    Great race, but disaster for the guys we SHOULD have seen on the podium.

    So Hamilton's crew cocked up before the race even started by not putting enough fuel in ... how professional ... not even going to mention Button's 'screw' up

    Good race, although as with Valencia, two exciting bits at the end got missed on tv .... and it was only good because the track was wet otherwise it would have been the usual blurred adverts in Indian file
