Big thanks to everyone involved with putting this on. Was a brilliant idea, and extremely enjoyable. Watching on tv is going to feel underwhelming now!

Thanks to Danny for providing some fantastic insight. Enjoyed listening to what he had to say.

More thanks to the PH guys for the 'goodies' too. Back home enjoying the Pact coffee as I type this. Extremely tasty stuff.

Fingers crossed we can make this a more regular thing.

Big thanks to everyone involved, this was a brilliant event! What a fantastic way to watch a Grand Prix, the only problem was I came away trying to figure out how to fit a screen that big into my house.

Hope this becomes a regular thing as would love to do this again!

Just wanted to express gratitude to the Pistonheads team and Nathan specifically for arranging the invite to today's meeting an Merc HQ, one of the most mazing days I've had in years with great crowd, lets hope you can pull off the same event at Mclaren??

Thanks again.

Another great Sunday service!
Thanks for the freebies the Pact coffee is lovely, I was surprised to find a little PH smiley sticker in the bag so I hope people haven't thrown them away as I nearly did.
Well done guys. smile

That was an awesome way to start the new season, it was definitely worth a drive down from sunny Yorkshire to the grim south. At least it was dry enough to have the roof down, I'm glad I wasn't the only one who did that.

I was really impressed with what PH and MB World managed to achieve together and it was topped off nicely with the surprise goodies from Pact!

I hope there are more like this in the future (preferably for every Grand Prix!!!).

"The second competition we’ll be running is for the title of ‘Superfan’. To win this you’ll need to show the most support for your F1 team by having the best flag/ banner on the day, creative fancy dress or team clothing. The prize for this one is a passenger hot lap with either James or Dan at our Silverstone Sunday service on Sunday the March 22 (next Sunday) or if you’re not going to the Silverstone Sunday Service then we’ll give you a PH tee and mug."

Who did this go to in the end? biggrin

I'm afraid not - I tried my best to arrange it again and (despite speaking to the same people as I did last year) they just weren't up for it. Something about convincing staff to get up at 4am on a Sunday or something!

I'm also gutted because it means this is going to be the first time in a long time that I won't be able to watch the first race of the season live. However, they haven't ruled out screening a night race for us, so we may well be able to take over their cinema one evening - I'll keep you posted!

Thanks
