I / AM DROPS | What's it really like to win a VIP Silverstone experience?

AMF1Lawn desktop article hero

Trackside viewing, AMR Technology Campus tours, music, merch, and more. Winners of our latest I / AM DROP, The FanMade DROP, got the chance to join us at the The Lawn for the British Grand Prix. We asked them what it's really like to have the best seat in the house.

Entry to the AMR Technology Campus? A pass to go trackside with the team?

We see you. We got you.

In the build-up to the British Grand Prix the clamour for passes and the desire to go behind the scenes at our home race reaches fever pitch.

With the AMR Technology Campus a stone's throw away from Silverstone Circuit, there's no better place to be for the British Grand Prix than with us.

You want in.

As part of The FanMade DROP, an I / AM DROP inspired by your fandom and TikTok trends, we gave I / AM members the chance to win VIP passes to The Lawn at the AMR Technology Campus for a once-in-a-lifetime experience on Saturday of the British Grand Prix.

Winners of the DROP were treated to grandstand seats at the long right-hander of Luffield, where they witnessed cars thundering down into Brooklands from the Wellington Straight before scrabbling for traction through Luffield for the full-throttle run through Woodcote.

Chests thumping from the thrill of the battle for pole, ears ringing from the V6 roar, I / AM members were then welcomed to the AMR Technology Campus.

Embarking on an all-access tour of our home, they explored where our cars are designed, manufactured, and assembled, before heading back to The Lawn – a strictly invitation-only event.

Awaiting our guests, a heady mix of sumptuous food and drink, world-class hospitality and entertainment, and immersive experiences including race simulators and The Cube: a virtual reality experience providing a lifelike glimpse of what it's like to drive a Formula One car at Silverstone Circuit.

DROPS winner heard from team members, including two-time World Champion Fernando Alonso and CEO and Team Principal Andy Cowell, before Andrew Cushin and Armand Van Helden took to the stage to deliver stunning live sets amid the backdrop of our imposing, state-of-the-art home and a showcase of some of Aston Martin's finest road-going models.

We caught up with a handful of our latest DROP winners to find out what it's really like to win the ultimate VIP Silverstone experience...

10 feet from Fernando

"From planning to watch the British Grand Prix weekend from my sofa to standing just 10ft from Fernando Alonso, the whole I / AM DROPS experience was nothing short of extraordinary. Incredible food, racing sims, Luffield grandstand seats for Qualifying – truly unforgettable." – Daniel

Behind the scenes

"It was amazing getting to see first-hand how much hard work goes into the running of the team during a Grand Prix weekend, both on-track and behind the scenes at the AMR Technology Campus.

"From watching Qualifying in the grandstands and touring the AMR Technology Campus, to the entertainment and treats back at The Lawn, including Fernando Alonso's appearance and Armand Van Helden's set, this was a really incredible experience." – Chloe

Newey at his drawing board

"From the very first second to the very last, this was a truly unforgettable experience – even the DROPS entry and communication process was seamless. Seeing the Formula One car in the reception at the AMR Technology Campus was immediately mind-blowing.

"At The Lawn we customised some merch and made our way to the Glenfiddich bar to sample some of the amazing cocktails – there were some incredible fan experiences.

"The tour of the AMR Technology Campus, showcased the complexity of building an F1 car and the operations of the team. Seeing how many people it takes for the car to hit the track is really eye-opening. The true highlight of our day, however, was being able to see Adrian Newey drawing away in his office." – Jack

A hands-on experience

"All I can say is wow. It was a real privilege to be so close to the action on a Grand Prix weekend. To be allowed to hold a newly 3D-printed part of the F1 car and know it was heading to the track is not something I'm likely to experience again.

"Seeing Mission Control and Adrian Newey hard at work in his office were absolute highlights, and our whole experience of The Lawn was second to none. The atmosphere was relaxed and we were made to feel very comfortable and welcome." – Aileen
