It’ll be my first time going to the British GP and we’re sitting in Club A.
The after party always seems like such a packed, great event with brilliant atmosphere. It would be fantastic if anyone could let me know roughly what time to get there after the race to ensure I have a somewhat clear view of the stage, and how to get there from Club A.
@jetlag : The merchandise is priced exactly or similar to those values which you see online. However, it works out cheaper to buy at the GP as you skip all the horrendous shipping costs.
1. Seriously, don’t bother with earplugs or ear defenders (unless you have a health condition that requires you to take a little extra care then, obviously, these will be needed). Yes, the noise is unlike anything else you will have experienced, but it’s never reaches the point where you will be in pain. Being subjected to this level of noise once or twice a year will not permanently damage your hearing. People get far too obsessed with earplugs! Why go to a race in the first place if you can’t be bothered to experience all aspects of it? If you have the (LUCKY!) opportunity of being in the garages, or near them, ear protection is a necessity as the sound waves have three walls to bounce off of. There’s no harm in spending a few quid on protection, but after all the money you have spent getting to be in the presence of the beautiful cars, I doubt you’ll use them.
2. Make sure your shoes are definitely comfy. Take your most reliable pair: the ones you have had for long enough that they’re worn in but still in good nick. You underestimate how much walking you’ll do.
3. Bring waterproofs but be careful with your choice. A waterproof jacket is a necessity but take one with a hood rather than an umbrella. Umbrellas are hassle to carry around and can make other fans very, very peeved.
4. Be realistic in how much money you will spend per day. Food is pricey, but whilst it is tasty, it certainly adds up quicker than you would expect.

Spa – Alonso and Button spin out after colliding in the heavy rain. Hamilton has an unlucky weekend and gets multiple penalties and has to pit too much as McLaren mess up their strategy.

Schumacher, Vettel and Massa take to the podium as the Kaiser wins for the 92nd time.The most boring race of the season?

Michael Schumacher wins, DiResta gets on podium a couple of times.Drivers champion?

Red Bull.Keith, I am loving these videos after every race! Feels even better watching them than the FOM coverage, even if sometimes the atmosphere is lacklustre…
India – Mark Webber has a qualifying and race without any sign of KERS problems and takes his first victory of the year ahead of Sebastian Vettel (possible team orders for this result…) and Lewis Hamilton.
Abu Dhabi – Would like to see Sebastian Vettel win for the third time in a row at the Yas Marina Circuit.
Brazil – Extreme wet conditions sees the McLarens and Mark Webber retire leaving Michael Schumacher to battle with Sebastian Vettel and Fernando Alonso. Flawless pitstops give Michael Schumacher his first win since 2006.
Okay, okay some may say my Brazil hopes are unrealistic but personally I can see it happening. However the chance of this happening is much more likely in 2012. A battle with Schumacher, Vettel and Alonso? What quality racing that would be!
