The British Grand Prix With Masdingscom

Since the very first race in 1950, the British Grand Prix has become a pinnacle of the Formula One calendar. As drivers and teams from around the world converge on the spiritual home of racing, we take the time to look ahead at what 52 laps of racing around the Silverstone circuit is set to hold, and what you should be wearing if you're one of the lucky spectators.

The thrills and spills of F1 mean that nothing is certain, but, like every sport, there's always a favourite. We're tipping Sebastien Vettel to put in a strong performance for Red Bull, he's the king of all driving conditions and has a car with great pace. The race on the 30th of June marks one year on since his team mate, Mark Webber, took the British Grand Prix crow- could it be Vettel's turn?

So is the win in the bag for Vettel? There's no doubting his form, but Englishman Lewis Hamilton is itching to add a second British Grand Prix title to his tally, and his Mercedes has more than enough pace to help him do it- could there be an upset on the cards with Hamilton's home crowd firmly behind him?

Much like the race result, there's no telling what's going to happen with the weather. Early reports state a 24 degree max, with some muggy conditions- perfect for sitting and enjoying an afternoon of racing!

If you're off to sit in the grandstand, then take a look at the outfit we've put together for you. With traditional British styling, some quirky twists and a hint of nostalgia, we've left the British racing green out and taken this look straight out of the text book, and into your wardrobe.

You could get away with swanning around on Bernie Ecclestone's yacht in these white chinos by Dockers. Finished with a sleek tapered leg, they give the smart edge of a chino with the gentlemanly suave of crisp white. Nothing says Summer like white chinos, so embrace the temperatures and keep cool in your seat with this pair of Dockers. It's time to add some fun to your outfit, without making you racier than what's going on on the track. Pair up this Suit Didrik patterned shirt with your white chinos. The dark navy gives a smart contrast, whilst the white patterning detail gives you some well thought out colour coordination points.When the sun comes out and it starts to get a bit warm, roll the sleeves and let your arms breathe. Lets face it, at some point it's probably going to feel a bit chilly, so take this Lyle & Scott textured pullover with you. Wear a coloured belt to split the colour with the white chinos, but this jumper has enough about it to stand out without looking like just another grey pull over. You'll find a decent contrast with the navy collar of the shirt too. Comfy and stylish, stick with the gentlemanly look with a pair of navy Timberland boat shoes. Leave the socks in the drawer and roll up your chinos to let your ankles see the sun. These deck shoes are comfy enough to go the distance, so you'll be able to go further than an F1 car with a full tank. We know that it's not exactly Monaco, but you can still add some serious Mediterranean style to your look with a pair of Ray Ban Club masters. With a half rim lens and extended top frame, they are the ultimate in retro styling, making you look like a seasoned sun worshiper. Finally, you might be needing this satchel styled bag by Ted Baker. Useful for keeping everything together, it's compact enough to tuck under your seat when you've found your spot to watch the race. It's lightweight and durable too, making it perfect for slinging over your shoulder when you take a walk.

The BBC are providing full live coverage of the whole invent, including practice, right through to the race, from the 28th of June- but there are still tickets available!
