Winners of an exclusive Pirelli UK promotion have been rewarded with tickets to the 2013 Formula One British Grand Prix as well as a trip for two to the Red Bull Racing factory.

The competition was run by Pirelli Performance Centres (PPCs) and entered customers who purchased two or more Pirelli tyres at a PPC during September and October into a prize draw to win an exclusive F1 experience package. The top performing PPC branches also received an F1 experience package for their depot staff.

Ben Flynn from Warrington was the lucky prize draw winner picked at random and wins a pair of F1 tickets, a Red Bull factory tour plus some official Pirelli merchandise.

"As someone that has never really won anything in their life I was absolutely delighted to receive the phone call from Pirelli, said prizewinner Flynn. My girlfriend and I are huge F1 fans and we are really excited about going to our first ever grand prix at Silverstone.  I'll be taking my dad along to the Red Bull factory tour which should be really nice having spent many an afternoon watching F1 with him as a child.

The PPC depots that had the most promotion entries, and so received an F1 experience were STS Tyre Pros in Huntingdon, Discount Tyre Direct in Worthing, Merityre in Witney and Jeffreys High Performance Tyres based in Warrington.

Each of the winning four PPC branches have been rewarded with two places on the Red Bull Racing factory tour in December as well as two tickets to next years British Grand Prix.

Catherine Kirk, Trade and Consumer Marketing Manager at Pirelli UK, commented: Its always nice to reward our customers and our Pirelli Performance Centres who work incredibly hard throughout the year with some great competition prizes. The Red Bull Racing factory tour is a once in a lifetime opportunity and Im delighted that the prize has gone to Ben who is a big Formula One fan.
