What's my best chance of seeing an F1?

So as we're all here as massive F1 fans, I know many of you have been fortunate enough to see loads of them out and about or at events or even have the great opportunity of getting involved with the owners and taking part in big events that they organise.

I've been a massive fan of the F1 since I was a kid and have loved every second of being part of this community and learning loads and subsequently knowing loads about the different chassis but one huge part of my F1 fandom remains unfulfilled, I've never seen one in real life.

The closest any F1 has been to me has been at Oulton Park where #005 was a few years back for CarFest North (god I wish I'd have known about it cause I'd have gone just to see it) and I'm a bit stuck because seemingly nobody from 'oop North ever owns one or drives one up here for a journey.

I could/should really go to GFoS and at some point (perhaps this year) I will finally bite the bullet, get tickets and drive down but as it's right at the bottom of the country, I've never been before.

Is GFoS the best chance given there's usually an F1 or two there?

Sometimes I feel like driving down to Woking on a whim but there's little chance and definitely no predictable way of seeing an F1 in the wild and it's not like I can turn up at the factory cause they don't just let any visitor in. I know plenty of you have travelled for hours and through different countries to see them so I should really take inspiration from that level of dedication and get off my arse to see one finally eh?

Any help would be appreciated.
