Verdict
The clearest difference is rating: Lord's at 4.7 against Silverstone Tickets's 2.0. Lord's also leads on update cadence (every 6 weeks vs every 4 months) and ratings volume (126 vs 8). Silverstone Tickets's advantage is monetization model (free vs free with in-app purchases) and iOS requirement (13.0 vs 17.0). On price, ads, in-app purchases and device support there is nothing between them.
