Our in-depth guide will analyse some real race footage, reviewing racing lines, braking references and all other aspects of putting that special lap together at Silverstone.
Silverstone GP is one of the world’s best circuits, with a fantastic mix of high speed, flowing corners, including the infamous Maggotts and Becketts complex - which has to be one of the best sequences of corners you can find.
Silverstone GP is now made up of 18 turns, over 3.6 miles and is a great testing or track day facility due to it’s large run of areas and varying corner types.

Thanks for watching our circuit guide! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
wow, when i was watching the lap footage it made me appreciate how fast f1 cars really are
Great tuition, it’s a fast circuit and very technical it’s difficult to remember where you are as lots of blind areas and bends this really helps.
That line into and through Luffield got me two tenths. Thanks and good explanation. Pedaling on exit there was spoiling my times.
Really insightful video - wish I had found this before my day at Silverstone Yesterday! Will be studying this though in preparation for next time.
Hi! Glad you enjoyed it. How was you day at Silverstone? If you found the guide useful, please help us out and share. Thanks, Scott.
Thank you for all your effort, Learned so much from all these vids, must be time consuming. Thanks again you mvp
Great guide, thank you! Watching it makes me want to get back out on track and put what I've learnt in to action.
Hi Martin... Yes, get back out on track!!
Fantastic, so helpful, many thanks. Maggots/Becketts complex was always puzzling, plenty to work on for the next trackday now.
Glad you enjoyed it. Maggotts, Becketts and Chapel is amazing when you get it right!
Most excellent production. And thanks for the GT note references, that was really helpful.
Hi Peter, thanks for the comment. Glad you enjoyed. Scott
Brilliant as always, I find your videos excellent pre-trackday preparation
Thanks - enjoy your next day there
Thank you this helped me alot in Iracing.
Hi, thanks so much for this. Really helpful. Already subscribed the day before I found this video. 👍
Really appreciate this, thanks.
Thanks for this video! Please do more tracks!
No problem, if you enjoyed please share! We're creating more track and tutorials, please hold tight!
I knew antonio conte when he was at the spurs. Arteta i respected and keep my eyes on you.
Scott you are a wonder. I will never drive a car round Silverstone..except on the iRacing version. Your excellent guides
work just as well for digital tracks, and this is just the job for my Mx5 league race on Monday evening.
Ps, Going round Spa with you is enlightning and terrifying in equal measure. Brilliant. Thanks for all the hard work Scott. Regards Alan
HelloThank you for the guide, could you point to anywhere I can learn a bit more about Car settings around the circuit, positive/negative geometryDampers, spring rates, Stabalisers. The car appeared to be pointing with extreme slip angles? Keep up the great work. Joe
Amazing guide, the circuit is not exactly the same in iRacing but I hope I can shade a few seconds of my time. Shame that you don't have the same guide made also for the SR8.
hope you dont mind buddy but i shared this a s a track guide for the FM7 lemansesports event on my twitter as its very well done and informative to esports racers like myself
RaceRoom now has Brands Hatch GP ... finally.
Your guide of *_Hatch Indy_* is muchly appreciated. Will do the same for *_H-GP?_*
cheers
brilliant info
Hi Anthony, thank you very much. If you enjoyed the video, please help me out and share it! Cheers, Scott
I have posted it on the SELOC forum, The first round of the Lotus cup is at Snetterton on the 25th March 2017. I think i saw you on a lotus on track video in the Loyus cup ???
Hi Anthony, thanks very much for sharing. Yeah, I did a few races a couple of years ago. Was good fun!
Hi Scott!
Your guide is priceless for my first attempt on Silverstone, even with hours with on-boards and simulators :) Could you tell me something about advanced braking on Silverstone, because after your movies about braking and heel & toe I can't still find any answer.
Imagine if you have E92 M3 with 450 HP N/A engine - cagged, coilovers, LSD diff, ABS (stock), standard pedal set, soft slick tires and manual gearbox and you are running on the dry track. Would you use heel & toe?
In the case of hard braking (e.g. for Brooklands) I have idea to shift in standard way from 5th to 4th and from 4th to 3rd gear to use extra engine braking and to prevent foot lifting. But for next Luffield I'd use heel & toe during shifting from 3rd to 2nd gear, because there I don't need maximum braking and I want to move smoothly to save speed. The similar case should be after Hangar straight (but not into 2nd gear) and during braking to the last chicane.
For fast sections where you need to keep the balance and speed of the car, like braking to Copse corner and whole Maggots-Becketts-Chappel section I'd combine hard braking with heel & toe, because I'd shift mainly from 5th to 4th gear (only on Chappel I should use 3rd gear to keep high RPM at accelerate as fast as it is possible to Hangar Straight).
Yeah, I know this could be complicated during reading, but everything could be clear and understandable with on-board.
Kind Regards,
DL
Silverstone is so hard. All corners look the same to me 🤷♀️
👍🦅
Great history but sorry for manor in f1 series. Stand up and rebuild at lmp2.
If only we all had them grippy sticky slicks, big wings with all that downforce this video would be quite informative :-)
