i'll be there

sunday only though for me..

Spotted you buddy rolling out the car park on your way home.

We sat and waited a bit longer for some of the traffic to go before we started our trek home. Still took 4 hours to do the drive it had taken me 1 hr 20mins to do the night before!

Comedy moment of the way home was just about a mile out of the curcuit when an Audi Q7 stopped in the traffic so 3 big guys (probably hospitality getting lifts back somewhere) could get out so they could have a big fight by the side of the road. The chauffeur just stood there watching, as we all did in our cars. :lol:

Still, good weekends racing! Just glad i had today off work to recover!

Tell me about it. Wasn't entirely happy with the result being a Ferrari fan. Massa spent more time facing the wrong way than anything, and the decision not to change kimi's tyres was stupid!

rubens did amazing though by comparison....

but do you want to see them going really really fast, as they do, and not see them for long. or do you want to see them going slower, but for longer...?????

as you didn't like it there i'd definately recommend club corner on the outside as we could see down the vale, around club and almost up to the abbey chicane.
loads went on aswell due to the rain, really good spot we randomly picked.

We were at Club too. :thumbup

We had sussed out the track on Friday and soon realised that you could see the most track from here. Your right, loads of action here too, especially in the wet.

We got there at 8am on Saturday and got a great spot. See pic below, its my Ferrari flag you can see.

Sunday we got to the same corner at 7am and there was virtually nowhere to get. We ended up right at the back next to a load of Polish guys who spent all day getting wasted!

he he..

we got there about 9.30 or so on sunday, where you were was totally rammed! hence we ended up a little further up. still good though as we could see quite a lot of the track and were real close too..

we ended up next to about 15 or so brazilians - massa fans of course - and they were gutted when he came round on lap 2 in last place !! :lol: especially when hamilton started leading on lap 5.

ha ha ..
