Formula 1 Silverstone (Friday)

First time in several years and Silverstone much more crowded than I can remember. Some of the circuit was out of bounds for basic admission, stands - yes, enclosure at Luffield - No!! Mostly taken at Farm, through the fencing, and Luffield Stand.

Some are not cropped at all...but thanks for your comment

Great shots, love that last one

^^ I agree, well done. Also that second one of the Red Bull car is pretty sweet.
If you don't mind me asking, which lens were you using?

Yup, and I think Mr. Newey did a good job (see race results).

Nice shot of Massa, he had a great run today.

Nice series of shots. Like em all but the jenson button shot stands out 4 me being the patriotic sod i am.

Phil.

It is indeed.
New nose, rear wing endplates, body underwing (floor) and new diffuser, engine cover and not including all the smaller parts that accompany them!
Built in four weeks... Looking forward to going in to work tomorrow (Red Bull Racing )

Thanks for the comments. Most of the time using 300mm with 1.4x or 2x
(whisper it) also tried out a Nikon D90 and Sigma 150-500 in the afternoon session - photos 1 and 3.

Not being rude or owt but a few of them to me look a bit 'noisy'/pixelated when looking at certain areas of the cars?

Yeah I was looking at 2 & 3 but thought maybe it was just me or my screen.

Great shots...I was on Club and Hangar, got some pit lane shots too which I need to upload.

Thanks for the feedback. Not sure why that is. The originals look OK. Not sure if it's the file type, both 2 and 3 (as was 8) were saved as GIFs rather than jpegs when saving for web. Maybe over sharpening in the workflow?
