Hi John, all pretty easy questions!
Sign on is in the paddock bar as far as I am aware. Unsure if we can park outside the bar or if we have to walk over the pedestrian bridge.
Camping is more than likely on the outside of Copse (again by Ped Bridge)

Yes, that's what it's likely to be. Welcome aboard!

You sign on at the Paddock Cafe/Bar. Drive into Sillystone, over the bridge and into the 'Officials Parking' area. Cafe opens at 07:30. From there you can either walk to your post, or drive around the perimeter road.

The arrangements are probably as last year. Sign-on in the paddock bar/diner. Camping outside Copse, showers/toilets are also there. For sign-on, you will have to park BEHIND Ped Bridge and walk to the diner over said bridge. You can then drive around the OUTSIDE of the circuit to your post.

LOL. I'm sure we can manage alternative arrangements. It's not like there'll be any rugby to watch this time.

No private vehicles are allowed on circuit at Silverstone. There is nothing stopping you walking it though. Not sure,as yet, of the time of the race, but I believe it starts around midday.
See www.lemans-series.com for updates.
