2014 British GP grandstand seats selling out

Silverstone has confirmed that several grandstands are already close to selling out for next year's 2014 F1 British Grand Prix.

As in 2013, the highest demand has been for premium seats in the 'International Pits Straight' grandstand, opposite the Silverstone Wing Pit and Paddock Complex, and overlooking the start-finish line. The highest priced 'Three Day' and 'Sunday Only' tickets have already sold out in 'International Pits Straight', however, a limited number of tickets are still available in other sections of the grandstand.

'Stowe B' grandstand is another approaching complete sell-out, while tickets in 'Woodcote B', 'Club Corner', 'Luffield' and 'Copse B' grandstands are also limited.

“This year's British Grand Prix was a fantastic spectacle and the fans' experience has translated into early interest and promising ticket sales. Sales were up 50% (compared with 2012) over the Grand Prix weekend itself and a number of the best grandstands are now almost sold out," commented Silverstone Circuits managing director Richard Phillips.

“While there are plenty of tickets still available in a number of other grandstands and General Admission areas, we would advise fans wanting a choice of grandstands to book as soon as possible.

“Next year's rules will see a significant change to F1, with teams having to design new cars from scratch. With extra power from the turbo engines we're expecting real drama and excitement around the high speed track here at Silverstone."

The 2014 British GP will be held on July 4-6, sandwiched between the races in Austria and Germany.
