Spectator Tickets

Join us at Silverstone and get up close and personal with some phenomenal combustion engines and electric single-seater racing cars built entirely by students who just might go on to design, build or race the F1 cars of the future.

Experience the drama, passion and excitement as over 100 university teams from dozens of countries across the world compete to design, build and race the best single-seater race car. Spectator tickets for the public days of the competition (Friday, Saturday and Sunday) will be available around Spring, either for individual days or for the full weekend (Friday to Sunday).
