I've managed to get a set of tickets for Sunday courtesy of Michelin.

Never been before and I expect there's going to be a LOT to see - what do you think should be the priority to see on Sunday?

cheers

You wont see it all in a day, but things to make sure you see would include.

Supercar Paddock
F1 and surrounding car & bike Paddocks
Rally Stage
Cartier Concours display on the Library Lawn
Cathedral Paddock
Keep an eye for when any motorsport greats are due to attend any stands etc.

Get there early and enjoy your day smile

Simply accept you cannot do it all, and relax.

What are your favourite things?

Best idea is to get in early and stroll around the paddocks while it is relatively quiet, though Id try to get around the F1 paddocks during the day too as they often turn over the engines and one of the teams turns the engine to the sound of the National Anthem, its a nice party piece!

Obv on track action which can also tie up all of your time.

The concours to see some beautiful machinery, the Drivers Club to meet drivers, the interview stage to hear some chats with fascinating people, the rally stage to see some masters at work...

See, its too much to list.

Just enjoy the experience.

Get there for doors open wander around pits and merchandise get trackside watch the batches go up the hill catch the gas show do rally stage in afternoon then shoutout at 3 pm. Loads of people go after shoutout but stay around to go trackside again until action stops and then stay for prize giving!

Get a programme and try watch the cars go up the hill, but only the cars you want to see. Each lot of cars goes up twice during the day.
Don't worry too much about the rally stage unless you particularly like rally cars as it takes a lot out of the day to get up there and back

Most of all- don't worry about not seeing everything, once you have been for the first time, you will be back...

Or you can watch the hill climb as you go up the hill to the rally stage, then once at the top see the hill climb cars again in the top paddock along with all the start drivers etc.. if thats your thing...
