Formula 1

Post by Edgar P » Mon, 11 Sep 2017 4:53 pm

Hey Guys,

Just wondering, is it possible to see F1 Grand Prix or any of the race for free? As I understand it will be running on actual streets? Or nevertheless, you need to have a ticket to these areas?

You need a ticket.

The whole race is pretty much hidden by fencing.

There are plenty of buildings that overlook the track but you need access and companies, mine for example, sell tickets and donate to charity.

progressively, all small gaps have been closed ..

Example, from St Andrews Church Base we could see the cars in the races 5 years ago.

Now, it's limited to hearing the noise !!! the not so noisy V6s !!!

A bit off topic, but I'm in Andorra at the moment and caught the Spanish F1 earlier this month (down the road in Barcelona). Great track! Can't wait for Singapore.

went to the GP very expensive and you don't see anything better to go on a rooftop with a drink I think
All a matter of opinion I guess... in comparison to Europe the GP in Singapore is cheap.
You want cheaper go to Hanoi next year :wink:
Now that IS cheap.
