🏁 Lights Out on the British Grand Prix 2026 at Silverstone!
As another incredible British Grand Prix comes to a close, we're seeing the familiar signs of a successful event, aching feet, dusty and mucky hi-vis' handed in, a few pink cheeks, and plenty of team members who have definitely topped up their tans in the heat.
A huge thank you to every member of the Areion team who worked tirelessly throughout the event. The scale of the operation was immense, and our staff once again demonstrated professionalism, resilience and outstanding commitment from start to finish with some clocking over 100k steps!
This year, Areion took on additional positions within Zone Ex, and our team absolutely smashed it. Through soaring temperatures and huge crowds, our staff helped keep things moving smoothly for the hundreds of thousands of fans attending one of the world's greatest motorsport events.
570,000 fans attended across the race weekend, with every one of them passing at least one of our Zone Ex team members as they entered or left the circuit.
170,000 fans attended on Sunday alone.
With F1 BGP record temperatures and relentless footfall, the effort put in by our staff cannot be overstated. We are immensely proud of what was achieved and grateful to every single person who played their part.
Thank you for another fantastic British Grand Prix. Enjoy a well-deserved rest!
