MEET THE FLEET

We operate our own fleet of medical vehicles, including 4 fast intervention cars and 5 ambulances. For lisenced race meetings, these can be seen positioned at various locations around the track, ready to respond. This enables our highly skilled medical personnel to reach the scene of any incident and initiate life-saving medical interventions within seconds, before transferring the patient back to the Medical Centre for further treatment and stabilisation.

We are proud to have some of the most advanced technology available and a dedicated landing site for medical helicopters, with a flying time to the nearest Major Trauma Centre of 12 minutes.

Additional track safety resources operated by the Silverstone Marshal Team include fire tenders and rescue units.
