The Princess Royal’s son arrived in Northamptonshire ahead of Practice 3, wearing a navy-blue waterproof jacket, a matching jersey, and a crisp white shirt.
The 46-year-old has recently returned to work in Formula 1, having held multiple roles in the high-octane sport since graduating from the University of Exeter in 2000.
His latest venture is as head of partner acquisition for the sports and entertainment rights agency CSM Sport & Entertainment.
After university, King Charles’ nephew worked for Jaguar as a corporate hospitality manager and later for the Williams racing team as a sponsorship accounts manager.
Peter’s appearance at the race course comes one week after Princess Anne was discharged from Southmead Hospital in Bristol, following a five-day precautionary stay due to an injury at her home estate, Gatcombe Park.
During her hospital stay, her husband, Vice Admiral Tim Laurence, visited her, bringing “treats from home” to make her comfortable.
Upon Anne leaving the hospital, Tim said in a statement: “‘I would like to extend my warmest thanks to all the team at Southmead Hospital for their care, expertise and kindness during my wife’s short stay.”
