Lesley Worrell from Hampshire was announced as the lucky winner of the 10-day competition and was delighted with the prize.I still cant believe it, said prize winner, Worrell. We were at the Grand Prix and we went along to the Pirelli stand and thats where we entered the competition. We didnt expect to win, I didnt think anybody ever won these sort of competitions so I really couldnt believe it when I got the phone call saying that Id been successful. Its the first competition that Ive ever won and my partner is a petrolhead so hes over the moon too. Im a big Mark Webber fan and my husband is a Lewis Hamilton and Jenson Button fan, so we cant wait to go along next year.Catherine Kirk, Trade & Consumer Marketing Manager at Pirelli UK said: We had a fantastic response to our online competition and its always nice to be able to reward six lucky winners instead of just one.   Our competition was extremely popular and Lesley was the lucky winner of the Silverstone tickets out of over 3600 entries. We hope to do another competition soon to reward our customers and fans and Id like to take this opportunity to personally thank everybody that took the time to enter our competition.
