Not sure if there's one floating about at the moment - but if you search on ten-tenths trackside forum you'll find loads of information about this

I was going to leave this here for a short while and then move it to trackside to maximise the chance of a good reply.
I have camped at Silverstone, but not during the GP - I suspect it is a totally different ball game! |

Lucy, i camp for the British GP weekend every year, always at Whittlebury campsite, in "Copse". Good facilities, beer tent (very important) and not too much noise after midnight.
They are charging 85 quid for the weekend if you book before the end of January as of February 1st the price goes up by 20 quid or so. Hope this helps. |

I'm quite lucky to live relatively close to the track, and have few probs driving to and from the track each day.
I've never camped near or at the track, but I sought out some links for you. http://www.silverstone-camping.co.uk/ http://www.ukcampsite.co.uk/sites/to...wn=Silverstone Or just type Silverstone camping into Google... lots of results. |
