    The Experience

    Hit the track in a Grand Prix style single-seater with contemporary racing pedigree.

    You’ll be strapped into an exhilarating F4 racing car for two 15-minute driving sessions around one of our world-famous circuits. In the first session, you’ll follow our Hyundai pace car for around ten minutes to learn the racing lines, before being let loose by yourself. After a short break, you’ll enjoy more solo flying laps in your second F4 session.

    The Brands Hatch fleet

    Formula 1 is the pinnacle of motorsport, and you’ll get closer to living the Grand Prix dream than ever before when we upgrade our fleet of Formula 4 single seaters from May 2025 onwards.

    Our new Tatuus F4 cars were raced in the GB4 championship, a first step on the path to F1, as recently as 2024. It’s a genuine FIA Formula 4 machine, as used in F4 championships worldwide, including Italy and Germany.

    The car features a modern carbon fibre chassis, a 1.4 litre turbo charged engine with loads of torque, more efficient aerodynamics and a sublime six-speed paddle shift gearbox!

    The Oulton Park fleet

    We’re updating our fleet of Oulton Park single-seaters to much more-modern Formula 4 cars from May 2025 onwards.

    These highly advanced single seaters were raced in the acclaimed BRDC F4 Championship and driven to victory by Mercedes star George Russell as he climbed the ladder to F1. They feature a paddle-shift gearbox and Cosworth Electronics multi-display steering wheel for effortless gear changes, seamless power delivery and sublime driveability.

    Please note: Voucher includes cancellation and personal accident cover. Spectators are permitted for no additional charge.

    Duration

    The driving experience will last approximately 2 hours in total, including registration, briefings and approximately 30 minutes' driving time in the single seater.
