WEC Round 1 - Silverstone

Anybody else going to Silverstone this weekend for the race? After the prologue this should be a really good race, especially if its anything like last year

I'll be there Fri-Sun, may have my son on Saturday too.

Does anyone know if I can pick up radio Le Mans on my iPhone while I'm there?

If you have data on your phone you can stream it directly from their website....or there are various free radio apps that have it live as well.

Great to see WEC release the new App today. You can now watch on demand for up to 3 weeks after a race. Not bad for £25 a year.

With the demise of Motors TV on Freeview, what's the best way to get coverage of the WEC rounds? Presumably it's going to be at a cost, but is the App any good, or am I better off stumping up for Sky or Virgin? Any other Options?

The App or website access is £25 for the season including Le Mans. Plus this year you can replay it for up to 3 weeks after the race, so a bargain if you miss 1 live

I was at the Paddock today and it was snowing!

Looks like they have gone to town on entertainment for the fans! Going to be a good weekend. Heard some interesting rumours about F1 teams looking at WEC and Peugeot/BMW looking at it as well.

Currently snowing at Silverstone quite badly! None of the teams are out on track at the moment

I actually liked the sound of the Ford GT. Managed to get on the grid walk and have to say, up close it's a very good looking car!

Seems Audi have decided not to protest the result which gives Porsche and Toyota a nice lead.
