Philips has launched a July competition with a top prize of competing at a motor racing school in a Formula One vehicle.

To mark a new sponsorship tie-in Philip is offering a lucky winner the chance to drive an AT&T Williams Formula One car at Silverstone as well as having their own seat made and driving other single-seater racers and high performance vehicles during the complete motor experience.

Lead driver for the Oxfordshire-based AT&T Williams team Nico Rosberg commented: "The first time I drove an F1 car was a really unbelievable experience.

"It really is an assault on the senses and the difference with driving a road car is just incredible; nothing can really prepare you for it. It is a bit like the difference between flying away somewhere for your holiday or climbing aboard an air force fighter jet. This really is an amazing opportunity and I am sure it will be one the winner will never forget."

Entrants have to be aged over 18 years with a full driving licence. Full competition details are on the Philips.co.uk website – where entrants will play an online driving game. The winner of the real-life experience will be the winner of the game.
