Here are a few shots from the Silverstone GP from last weekend. We were lucky to win a F1 Paddock tour from Radio Silverstone which was a great experience.

Comments appreciated.

Thanks for the comments so far.

The lens I used for the cars was the Sigma 100-300 F4 which I'm so glad I bought last year.

The pictures from the Paddock are taken with the DA* 60-250 and the
DA* 16-50.

Regards
George

Love the red bull trio 8'9 & 10. What an amazing opportunity and you made the most of it.

Great set!

That 60-year old Ferrari is a thing of beauty.

I love #1, #6, and #13


#7 of the tyres could be improved IMHO by cropping everything else out to make it more abstract.
