Where does general admission allow you to go?

[Shell]

I am VERY keen to go to the GP

(never been before)

I haven't made any plans or booked anything yet though...

[Majanal]

Shell, we should book together so that we have company and can chat during the first few exciting laps of your first ever GP!!!!

Will your other half be coming or just you?

[Majanal]

I think I'll go the stands!

Not sure on accom... anyone know any cheap places? With secure parking?

general admin will get you into more then 3/4 of the track precint

all the action is ofcourse based around the pit straight.

gen admin is good if you want to save, but you will fight for a seat, with grandstand you can wander around more and check them out at different speeds etc

I12 to S15 is restricted area i guess

out the back of the track is where all the exhibitions are held, there is nothing more a grandstand person can see rather then general admin, except with grandstand you always have a big bouncer there ready to throw people out of your seat

i would try schumacher stand, not bad there, i am next door in prost

hotels, hmm, alot of the cheap ones have sold out fast

getting a secure park in one may also be difficult, plenty of parking stations around the casino / exhibition centre / docklands area

i suggest take more then a day, sunday is extremely busy and you wont see much, you see most on friday and saturday

sunday you just sit and watch all the action and recover from no sleep and excess alcohol

[Silver-Arrowz]

I think Schuey stand looks good. What do you guys think?

[Silver-Arrowz]

Just for reference, my number is 0421302953.

[infected flow]

I'm flying there already booked and got seats for the first corner where they start

only one month to go

[Silver-Arrowz]

I'll be heading down for sure but nobody wants to to come with me in my car (probably cause they think I'm a psycho driver which I'm not). If not I'm taking a plane.
