Richie33 Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 You dont stay in Monaco, you stay in Nice and you catch the train in everyday. Get on early Depending on how much fun you want to have, the hostels there are great, because everybody else is doing the same thing as you. Even all the cute girls You'll pass the place i want to retire in on your train journey. Make sure you stop there and walk around, its utterly magnificent You buy a different grandstand ticket for every day. Here your one ticket get you the same seat for four days, over there, you can buy a seat in a completely different end of the track. Like i did. I can PM you the best spots with TV's, because the track maps on the internet are bullshit. Friday is an open day, i massively recommend walking the track, its all completely open to the public. The pits, the harbour with the boats, everything. The photos you get are unbelievable, the team operate 2m in front of you. I even met Jackie Stewart! Don’t worry about having to bring food, there’s heaps there and its all cheap. The baguettes are 4 euro and its like they were prepared by restaurants, not Indians on uni holidays. No need to pack anything but sunnies, hat and maybe something to read. ... theres so much more, but im supposed to be working, so perhaps later This sums it up nicely. I went last year, the beginning of 3 months backpacking across Europe on a rail pass. Stayed in a hostel in Nice for 25 Euro a night and it was around 7 Euro (return? can't remember) for the train into Monaco each day. The hostel I stayed in was one of the regular Bus-A-Bout stops so it was practically full of Aussies (so is most of Europe actually). Probably the cheapest F1 you can go to if you do general admin and are already in the 'area'. 40 Euro on Saturday for quali and 70 Euro on Sunday for race day. General admin is the hill on the western side of Monaco, on Sat I had an awesome view for quali but admittedly couldn't see shit on Sunday. Walked the track on Friday... so much history, such a stupid place for open wheel race cars Completely surreal to be in Monaco on race weekend. Living in London now but with the VISA up in June, I'm trying to decide to either do Monaco again, Barcelona or Valencia before heading back home.

ctjet Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 Barelona will be way better than Valencia. There are seats that let you see huge amounts of the track, and all the granstands are open on friday, easy to break into on saturday, and plenty of free standing room on sunday. In saying that i had grandstand tickets so it took some of the stress away from having to look for seating all the time Beware of the journey there. Its about 2 hours long and took me a bus, two trains and a 45 min walk. Getting back will be even more hektik with 100,000 plus fans all trying to get back home aswell Or fcuk it, monaco was awesome, do it again Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/384282-formula-one-2012/page/48/#findComment-6256953 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Owgasm Posted February 29, 2012 Share Posted February 29, 2012 spewing. I heard on the news this morning, pretty much no dice on the refunds. For cash payers thats correct. We paid via card - visa/mastercard - so we submitted a form and it should be returned to us from the bank.

tweety bird Posted March 1, 2012 Share Posted March 1, 2012 Ecclestone increases pressure on Australian GP organisers Formula 1 supremo Bernie Ecclestone has heaped further pressure on Australian Grand Prix organisers to make their event a night race - by dropping the firmest hint yet that he will not renew its contract if the start time does not move. While Melbourne organisers have resisted moves to shift the Albert Park event into a night event - because of cost and environmental factors – Ecclestone has not given up his crusade for the start time to shift from its current 5pm slot. Speaking to The Age newspaper, Ecclestone said: "We have a contract which we will respect - so up until 2015 we are in good shape. After then, we really don't know."If we were to have a divorce from our friends in Melbourne we would probably be walking away from Australia. Because I can't see how Adelaide could make it happen, or anywhere else, if Melbourne can't. The race itself, from our point of view, is probably the least viable of all the races we have." Despite his threat, and his insistence that other races are ready to step into the breach if Australia's deal is not renewed, Ecclestone said he would rather a deal could be reached to keep the event on the calendar. "We have other races ready to take the place of Australia - which we don't want to happen," he said. "But it would be wrong of me to have to report to our board, 'Terribly sorry about this but we have to walk away from wherever to retain Australia'." Ecclestone's threats against the Australian Grand Prix are nothing new, and 12 months ago he was involved in a public war of words with Melbourne's son of rajab Mayor Robert Doyle over the future of the event. http://www.autosport...rt.php/id/97734 Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/384282-formula-one-2012/page/48/#findComment-6257779 Share on other sites More sharing options...
