Lewis Hamilton fever in Britain has prompted Silverstone to erect more grandstands seating for July's grand prix there.

The Northamptonshire-located circuit announced in a statement that "overwhelming demand" for tickets, means that race day is now "close to selling out".

Managing director Richard Phillips is quoted as saying Silverstone Circuits Ltd has reacted by adding 2200 extra seats.
