Traveling from Australia for the race, trying to economize on the tickets seems pointless. Done my ticketing for Sao Paulo as well now so lots of long haul flying to do.

We were chatting with one of the staff at turn 4 and she told us that we could go pretty much anywhere since it was quiet on Friday, but maybe not all of the staff felt that way.

Since it was such a raging success, more folks are going to give it a shot this year. We will see.

Note that on Friday you […]

Have been tempted by Turn 9 as it seems that with a good pair of binoculars and a high enough seat, you can see the Turn 12 braking zone. Would probably go for Turn 12 itself if […]

I wanted turn 1 or 15, but they appeared to be sold out by the time I got my order in. I also got a parking pass for lot F. See y'all there!

We were in row 1. Maybe if you are up […]

I sat at Turn 5 last year thinking that I'd be able to look across the track to Turn 12 but the view was obstructed.

It was OK but I am considering turn 1 or 15 this year. Turn 11 was a long walk from the main entrance. There was supposedly a shuttle bus to all the gates, but it seemed […]
