About this experience
Experience the atmosphere of Silverstone and feel like a genuine F1 racing driver with this exclusive Silverstone Single Seater Experience.
Engineered to give you a true F1 feeling, this car is like nothing you’ve ever driven before, boasting a manual four speed racing gearbox, unbelievable cornering grip, amazingly responsive handling and extreme speed. All your F1 heroes started out in cars similar to the one you’ll be driving, and your second session gives you the same amount of driving time as a typical single-seater race: this is the closest you’re ever going to get to open-wheeled racing without becoming a professional. You’ll be taught by an ARDS-licensed instructor, just like the racing professionals.

“An epic day out ”
Had a great time at Grizedale Forest GoApe. There is a good mix of activities in the treetop challenge including some epic zip wires. Definitely was pushed out of my comfort zone but always felt safe. The kids in our group loved it. There can be a bit of waiting around between the platforms. Our experience lasted well over three hours from start to finish so allow plenty of time. A very good value experience.
What's Included
- Full safety briefing and instruction
- Session 1: 10 minute’s driving on Silverstone’s Stowe Circuit following a pace car
