British Grand Prix 2000

Silverstone Circuit - Official Qualifying 
Saturday 22nd April 2000


These images all came from original photos that I took during a hospitality visit to the Silverstone Paddock Club, hosted by my company, Nortel Networks. The action is captured from the pit lane walk-about, around 10 to 20 minutes before official qualifying for the year 2000 Silverstone GP.

SilverStone Testing Day
Wednesday 19th July 2000

These are some further photos (click the picture for an enlargement) from a Nortel Networks corporate day as the guests of BMW Williams F1 Team at the BRDC (British Racing Drivers Club), during this F1 testing day. Jenson Button was the guest speaker after lunch .... he answered a few questions - so I asked him "what would be your favorite historic racing car to drive"? ...... this took him some time to answer (the Williams PR guy said this was because he isn't old enough to remember many!) - but he eventuallly replied that it probably wouldn't be an F1 car - perhaps the Porsche 917 ... good choice Jenson, I say!

These were the times for the day (sorry ladies - but Jenson came last! - but click here for Jenson Button's website)
