Who did ever go to a F1 race?
That's not a bad idea, Donington's not that far from me (about an hour's drive) so I might pop down there.

If you wish to see a bunch of F1 cars racing at Hockenheim for 15 euro, I suggest you go to http://www.jimclark-revival.com and check it out.
I'll be there on sunday myself, so if anyone wants to meet up in person......I'll be spending most of my day around the 2 Simteks.....

Re: Who did ever go to a F1 race?
i went to the jimclark-revival this year. i wanted to see the beautiful BASF-BMW M1 but it wasnt there. But other cool cars like the Martini-Brabham, Arrows, Ferrari, Lotus...
My F1 races were
1982 Hockenheim (i was 4 years old)
1986 Hockenheim
1996 Nürburgring (Jacques' first victory)
1997 Hockenheim Qualify (we went through a hole in the fence in the forrest)
1999 Nürburgring (yes!)
2000 Monaco (a friend invited me to his balcony)
and also some DTM Races, one GT Race.
I have to say, that the F1 is a special thing, very loud, very fast, very expensive. The F1 races (especially monaco) are very glamorous; theres a lot of show around it, but to watch it live, its almost very boring, because they overtake in the pits not on the track.
The greatest fun i had during 1993-1996 watching the DTM with Alfa Romeo against Mercedes. I'm an italian guy living in germany, and it was all time a great audiance, atmosphere and of corse action on the track. I wish these days come back again!

That was a great time. Actually, I enjoyed DTM before I really knew or understood much about Formula 1.tmc wrote:The greatest fun i had during 1993-1996 watching the DTM with Alfa Romeo against Mercedes.

Re: Who did ever go to a F1 race?
I never has been in F1 races. In Interlagos the ticket costs US$ 250. But if someday Indycars return to South America, I'll travel to watch, doen't matter where. I just watched national races at Interlagos in the 90's (Brazilian Stock Car) and Pick-Up racing at Santa Cruz do Sul some years ago, in the same time when the track was opened and I made it for GP2.

Re: Who did ever go to a F1 race?
this are my plans for 2009:
1000km of Spa - LeMans Series
GP Germany (Nürburgring) - F1 (i hope i can found some cheap tickets)
For Spa i can hardly expect the different cars and engine sounds. And... Eau rouge!
And for the F1-race the excitement of the fans. And... Alonso!

Re: Who did ever go to a F1 race?
My plans for this year are:
LMS Spa-Francochamps
Nürburgring F1 (only friday practice)
LMS Nürburgring (that's 100% definitive, as last year was "wow"!!)
And maybe something with group-C cars, if possible.

Re: Who did ever go to a F1 race?
For two years, I've been sort of saying that I wanted to see the LMS race. I didn't go, and each time afterwards, I was upset that I didn't, so I've intentionally marked that in my calendar. I won't go to see any GPs from anywhere else than in front of my television/computer, though. In the "would be nice" category, I might pick some dates for the endurance championship that always runs on the Nordschleife.
