I'm a first time user of this forum and wondered if any of you could offer me any advice.
My husband is a GP fanatic but he's never been to see a live race. I am thinking about buying him tickets to go to Silverstone next year and as his birthday is a couple of weeks before the race I thought it would be a perfect present from all the family.
My first question is where would you advise sitting for a first time visitor to Silverstone? I prefer to have actual seats booked rather than having to fight for a place with the general tickets and was weighing up whether to go for an uncovered seat in the pit straight or a covered seat at the end of the straight (sorry forgotten the proper name).
Secondly, can any recommend a reputable online ticket agency? I've been scouring the web for the last few days and there are so many ticket agencies that I really don't know which one to go for. The prices vary so much and I'm always worried that after spending hundreds of pounds, at the end of the day the tickets wont ever turn up.
Thanks. Any advice you could give me would be fantastic. Obviously as I would really like it to be a surprise for my husband I can't speak to him about it and see where he would prefer to sit.
