How the day runs
On a the British Grand Prix day the car leaves The Oxfordshire with time in hand for the A329 and M40. On drop-off, the published arrangements apply: the circuit does not provide a drop-off facility. Visitors are directed to shuttle buses from rail stations or park-and-ride sites; locals can use a drop-off/pick-up point at Towcester Racecourse with pre-booked bus tickets. Parking must be booked. Through the day the chauffeur waits nearby and comes back when you message. Coming back to the hotel takes about 48 minutes, plus the time the car parks need to clear. For a plain race day, Royal Windsor Racecourse is about 43 minutes and Kempton Park Racecourse takes 53 min. Tickets come from the organisers; Ravensley has no link with any event and simply drives you there.
