Last weekend was time for my annual trip to Silverstone to watch the British GP. As you can see from the picture the weather could have been better but it made for a very exciting weekend of racing. The bottom half of the course (where I was spectator marshalling) saw a large amount of action with lots of overtaking and cars spinning in the wet. The weekend finished on a high when Lewis Hamilton dominated the race and was first over the line – there is a great atmosphere when the crowd gets behind one of the drivers. Saturday’s GP2 race also produced some exciting racing with places changing right up to the end of the race.

I have a few more pictures from the event (including one of the Batmobile) which I’ll put online soon. Marshals aren’t allowed to take pictures of the race so if you’d like to see some pics of that try here.
