    I've the opportunity to go to the MotoGp in Silverstone in September. I've never been there before and I'm looking for (sensible) suggestions as to where the best views would be. Please bear in in that I'd prefer seating (covered) because I not able to stand for a long time and I'd like to stay dry too.

    Thanks.

    Get a roaming grandstand ticket. You can get into a load of grandstands. Use the site map to get into a grandstand with a TV across from it. Last couple of times I've been on the start finish straight opposite the big screen, use the others for practice and qualifying.

    The stands are great for rain but not wind, they have been very cold the last few years.

    The problem with Silverstone is it can be a pain to get from one grandstand to another. For example, last time I was there I got split up from some mates and we ended up in grandstands directly opposite each other. In order to get to the other grandstand I had to get a fricking bus!

    Just an a quick update.
    1st thanks again for your help.
    We had a brilliant day, we bought roving grandstand tickets. For the Moto 2 race we sat in stands in Copse 'E'. For the main race we stood on the bank in front of Copse 'A' stand and for the Moto 3 race we sat in the pits straight straight directly opposite the podium. The atmosphere and the sound was awesome and the sun beamed down on us. All in all a great day out. Next year again I hope.

    Fazer6 :D
