Silverstone and the Circuit of the Americas have launched a joint Formula 1 giveaway that will provide one winner with two VIP race-weekend experiences across the 2026 and 2027 seasons.
The prizes cover the 2026 United States Grand Prix at COTA in Austin and the 2027 British Grand Prix at Silverstone. Entry is free, although the competition is restricted to eligible participants in the United Kingdom and United States.
What the Silverstone and COTA F1 giveaway includes
The collaboration brings together two of Formula 1’s most recognisable venues, with the successful entrant receiving premium access to one Grand Prix in each host country. The Austin experience will take place during the 2026 United States GP, which forms part of the wider 2026 Formula 1 calendar, while the second prize is reserved for the following year’s British GP.
Although both rewards are built around exclusive race-weekend access, the Silverstone package is described in greater detail. The winner will receive a Circuit Explorer pass covering the entire 2027 British Grand Prix weekend.
Silverstone prize provides access across the full weekend
The Circuit Explorer package allows its holder to experience the event from different parts of Silverstone rather than remaining in a single location throughout the three days. The pass includes changing grandstand seats across the weekend, giving the winner several perspectives of the track and its Formula 1 action.
Access to hospitality areas and a dedicated Fast Track entrance are also included. Food and drinks will be provided on selected days, while a reserved grandstand seat is guaranteed for Sunday’s British Grand Prix.
The prize therefore combines some of the flexibility associated with general circuit access with selected hospitality benefits and a confirmed race-day seat. Further coverage of Formula 1 at the Northamptonshire venue can be found in the Silverstone and British Grand Prix section.
COTA prize covers the 2026 United States Grand Prix
The second part of the giveaway will provide a premium experience at the Circuit of the Americas during the 2026 United States Grand Prix weekend. The Austin package forms part of the partnership between COTA and Silverstone, although the complete list of inclusions is not detailed in the available competition summary.
Together, the two prizes give the winner an opportunity to attend major Formula 1 events on opposite sides of the Atlantic and in consecutive seasons.
Who can enter the Silverstone and COTA giveaway?
The competition is free to enter, with each participant limited to one entry per email address. Eligibility is restricted to people in the United Kingdom and United States, the host countries of the two Grands Prix. Consequently, residents of Italy and other countries cannot participate.
Neither prize includes flights, other travel expenses or accommodation. Those costs will have to be arranged and paid separately by the winner, making the hospitality and circuit-access packages the principal components of the competition.
Silverstone begins promoting the 2027 British Grand Prix
The giveaway also forms part of Silverstone’s early promotion of the 2027 British Grand Prix. Hospitality packages for the event are already being marketed, while standard admission tickets are expected to go on sale in the coming months.
Beyond the competition itself, the initiative underlines the continuing relationship between Silverstone and COTA. For one eligible Formula 1 fan, that collaboration could provide access to two of the championship’s largest race weekends through a single giveaway.
