Gerard Neveu, CEO of the ELMS, said: “The tickets for the first event at Silverstone are now on sale and offer great value, so that the whole family can enjoy the Spirit of Le Mans.  We have ensured that the tickets are all inclusive of entry to the event, access to the grandstands and also to the paddock so all visitors can meet the drivers and see the cars very close.  It is very important to us that the fans feel part of the event and are not pushed outside the fence line.  If fans book their tickets early they will be able to see some great racing at a price that offers great value for money.  We are confident that with the value for money ticket pricing and the entertainment on offer, the event at Silverstone will attract a bigger crowd than in 2012.”
