The real Silverstone returns

The famous Silverstone circuit from 1967 is coming soon on eClassic.

From 1948 to 1975, the most famous British racing circuit of them all, built in 1947 on an abandoned military airport, offered drivers the thrill of a very fast and treacherous track. Copse corner and the famous combination of Maggotts, Becketts, and Chapel soon became famous and still represent one of the great attractions of the circuit.

eClassic, which will introduce this famous track in the coming days, has chosen the configuration from 1967, when Jim Clark registered the best time in practice and won the Formula 1 Grand Prix. Behind the wheel of one of our simulators on such a famous track, eClassic Club members will need more than a few hours before getting even close to his times. Narrow wheels and no real downforce are the main obstacles to getting in a very fast lap time!

Stay tuned for new details in the coming days.
