- Full briefing from qualified instructors
- Warm up with laps behind a pace car
- Learn about racing lines and driving at speed
- Drive an F1-style single-seater round the circuit
Driving an F1-style single-seater racing car is unlike anything else. You're strapped into the open cockpit with your legs stretched out into the nose of the car, the steering wheel in front of you and the gearstick between your legs. You're only a couple of inches off the ground and you'll know it; you can feel every bump and vibration and you'll have to fight not to oversteer, as your super-responsive car reacts to every tiny adjustment you make. This is driving at its limits, as done by the pros; just you and the car. Your experience starts with a 30 minute safety briefing. Once the car's controls have been explained and you are strapped in, you'll head out onto the Silverstone track, behind a pace car, to get used to the Formula First's sensitive steering, the racing lines and acceleration. Your second driving session is back on track for a further 20 minutes to really go for it, without the pace car. Conclude with a debrief, driver assessment and certificate presentation.
