On one visit maybe 25 years ago, the Sunday morning Warm-Up (remember them?) was cancelled because of thick fog. The helicopter unable to fly. Seated high in the main grandstand opposite the pits I couldn’t even […]

I’ve got my fingers crossed for Zandvoort. Will it go ahead??? If not, they’ll be a stack of travelling Brits disappointed.

Formula One 1 year, 9 months agoI’d all but given up on being able to see the Orange Army crowding around the sand dunes cheering on their hero. But finally have managed to get sorted with transport, hotel, and grandstand ticket for what will surely be this years biggest race. Any other Brits manage to get sorted?

If the Bulls had stayed in the mix, then that could have been a 10.

Formula One 3 years, 7 months agoAustria is great for viewing. One of the best. Probably 70% of the track from some parts.

I too thought at first that it looked a bit like Barcelona @linkinruss. But then noticed that it is at least to be run anti-clockwise.

Absolutely @nickwyatt the Sunday (sprint) support races were pretty dexent. Saturday’s races with compulsory pit stops not so good. So the circuit can work well for some categiries.

Yas is flash. But in my opinion doesn’t really create a great atmosphere to be honest. Nothing like say Silverstone, or Mexico, or Montreal. I think maybe fans are expecting a dull race. This year they certainly got one!

I wish I’d watched it on the telly instead of spending about £1300 flying out there for the race.

Happy to be corrected by you @emerckx. I’ve been to a lot of races, and I can get my dates mixed.

Back at my hotel after watching from the South Grandstand at turn 11. Just 2/10 for the twelve lap battle between Moanin Grosjean and Stroll. Ended sadly when Stroll pitted.

Going to the Abu Dhabi Grand Prix at Yas Marina 3 years, 11 months agoLast time I went, sitting in the West Grandstand, there was actually an area where you could take pics from without bothering other fans. So you didn’t have to get all your shots from your seat. I don’t know if this exists in the Marina Grandstand, but I’d be quite surprised if it doesn’t.
