Went to the British GP last year for the first time, driving down from the north, and as you get there, there appears to be no way to choose a car park, even if that was North, South, East or West. rather than very specific. We ended up in a car park near Copse, but our seats were all the way round by Club (opposite end of the circuit). By the time we made it through the crowds, grabbed a bite to eat on the move, we only made it to the seats with 20 mins to spare.

All the signs on approach just said "Parking" and lots of marshals directing you in one route, at no point did the route fork into a choice.

Did we miss something?

This year we have tickets at Woodcote i.e. near Copse, sods law we'll end up at Maggots or Vale.

Any tips?

If you're coming from the M40, take the A43, then onto the A422, then head towards Dadford and follow the traffic from there, this will bring you out near Club Corner.

If you're coming from the M1, follow the signs for Buckingham, then take the A422, and head towards Dadford again.

BUT if you're sat at Woodcote, you should generally be directed into the nearest car park if you come off the A43, which will put you near where you want to be.
