The karting track where F1 drivers race
A go-karting race track said it had welcomed "about 75%" of F1 drivers in the off-season so they could "sharpen their skills".
Dan Prince, from Daytona Motorsport in Milton Keynes, said Isack Hadjar, Yuki Tsunoda and Alex Albon had all had a go.
He said it was due to the area being the "hub of British motorsport", close to Silverstone in Northamptonshire.
He said the challenging circuit had about "12 technical corners, an uphill straight", where drivers "can really hone their skills off-season".
Last year Kimi Antonelli surprised visitors to the track by going incognito at a packed racing session.
He set the fastest lap of the session in the main race but did not win.
The 2026 Formula 1 season has its first stop on the 24‑race calendar at the Australian Grand Prix in Melbourne this weekend, with Sunday's race due to start at 04:00 GMT.
The Mercedes team is based at Brackley in Northamptonshire.
