The Best Fan Zones and Events at the British GP

The British Grand Prix is a race that fans look forward to all season long. For Round 12 of the 2025 Formula 1 season, the drivers and teams are heading back to the iconic Silverstone Circuit where they will drive Copse Corner at high speeds, race down Maggots and Becketts while resisting the insane G-Forces, and come racing across the finish line to take the checkered flag first.
