Btcc spectating brands hatch

[Pop8]

Going to brands hatch this weekend for the final of the btcc ! Could anyone advise me where the big screens are and where's good to watch from ? Or the grandstands etc ! Thank you in advance

I always pitch up a deck chair on the banking of the Paddock Hill bend, about 1/4 of the way down the slope.

Benefits are that it's free - can see everything barring the very top of druids and the pit straight and that it's free and close to the majority of the action. Haven't been in a few years though, so unsure on where the screens are - won't see the GP circuit bits from anywhere without the screen I don't think

I don't remember seeing big screens during BTCC events past. Good places to observe are on the infield at druids, anywhere around paddock hill (though it gets crowded) specifically the paddock hill grandstand if you can still get tickets - as this commands a good view of the indy circuit.

It's GP circuit remember, so a trip out to Sheene curve or Stirling's is a must.

I usually walk the entire circuit during a GP meeting or during a longer distance GT for example.

Not sure on big screens or lack of.

btcc have three races that weekend. Paddock hill for one (bound to see some cars off there), clearways (platio will alwasy nudge a rival off here) and out into the woods for GP loop.

I'm pretty sure they have a screen opposite the bottom of paddock hill bend for btcc.

Last time I watched a race at Brands the best spot to watch was about 100m after Druids hairpin - you can see a lot from there - entry into and exit from Paddock, exit from the hairpin and you are very close to the circuit as they go past you and brake into Graham Hill bend (you can also see a bit of bottom straight and entry to Clear ways). The Btcc cars sound surprisingly good when so close to the circuit.

+1 for Paddock Hill (especially the grandstand if you can get in/afford it)!
