Spent a very enjoyable three days at a baking hot Silverstone drooling at the 700 racing cars. There was open access to the pits and paddocks which is fantastic for petrolheads.

The Mercedes Sauber C9 group C car being prepared for qually....sadly it only raced for one corner before crashing heavily.
