Silverstone Racing Circuit
Silverstone Track Guide



Flag Guide


TheGREEN FLAGmeans that the track is free. The flag is waved by the starter signaling the start to the warm-up lap.


The YELLOW FLAGindicates a danger on the track, usually an accident. If the marshal just shows the flag, overtaking is forbidden. However, if the marshal waves the flag, it means that the driver must slow down and be ready to stop immediately.


RED FLAG means immediate stopping of a race, qualification, or training. It usually is waved because a car is lying in a dangerous position after an accident or because conditions are too poor for racing to be safe. When the red flag appears, all drivers must slow down immediately and enter the pits.


A BLUE FLAGis waved to a slower car that is close to being overtaken by a faster car. The first of these must then allow for faster overtaking at the earliest opportunity.


A YELLOW FLAG WITH RED STRIPESwarns competitors of reduced track grip (due to water, oil, clay, gravel, etc.).


CHECK FLAG signals the end of a race or qualification.


The WHITE FLAGsignals a slow-moving vehicle on the track (ambulance or tow truck).


A BLACK FLAG WITH ORANGE CIRCLE and car number is used to inform that his car has mechanical problems and must leave the track immediately and go to the pits.


The BLACK FLAG together with the drivers number means that he must leave the track and go to the pits immediately, due to disqualification from the race.

The Vale Grandstand, Silverstone
On Sunday, you'll have an allocated Vale Grandstand seat. Read on to find out more...

One of the best views of the British Grand Prix
One of the biggest grandstands at the Silverstone circuit, the Vale Grandstand is full of spectators and no dress code - giving it a buzzing and relaxed atmosphere, as well as one of the best views of the action!

You'll see first-hand any moves that are made
This is because Vale Corner is known as one of the best overtaking spots on the circuit, so you'll be the first to see any moves that are made. You'll also get to see the F1 cars coming around Stowe at high speed, their downforce pinning them to the track.

What do you need to bring with you?
Vale Grandstand is not covered, so come prepared with the essentials to withstand the elements: sun protection and a refillable water bottle (drinking water taps are available at the toilet areas). There are several giant TV screens visible from here, but bring binoculars if you wish!
