Roy Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Dont do Italy! Spa isnt much better for spectating. I say do Hockenheim. I am probably doing the German GP next year...a friend suggested Abu Dhabi but not sure. If you want to do an OS race then I strongly recommend Malaysian GP. KL is a great city to play up in with a few friends, the GP tickets are pretty cheap and you can a great view of the circuit...many, many corners. Win win...and you can do it all in a 4 day weekend Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/384282-formula-one-2012/page/8/#findComment-6150565 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owgasm Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Enough time to do a few shopping trips Roy? Or not in the 4 day f1 weekend? Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/384282-formula-one-2012/page/8/#findComment-6150580 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roy Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Depends what you are shopping for I guess? Pay off a local taxi driver to be your driver for the trip, throw him a retainer and he will be happy to follow you around. Considering Sat-Sun is GP, and its about an 8hr flight, you will be hard pressed to do any shopping unless you get an late Monday/overnight flight home. Then I suppose you can shop Monday. The main thing is the big Fri/Sat night with great food and beers/laughs. Go to the right part of town and the local pubs are good fun with a good mix of people. Just have to put up with the chain smokers at the pool tables Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/384282-formula-one-2012/page/8/#findComment-6150611 Share on other sites More sharing options...
tweety bird Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 i'm looking at 5 to 7 days in abu dhabi (i want to do a track day plus ride some quads and see the city).

Roy Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 But is Abu Dhabi any different to Dubai? Not sure the circuit is all that good for spectating as long straights with slow corners? The V8s being there will help, and maybe if its a couples get away but not sure its the sort of city you can have too many laughs. The quad bikes in the dunes is fun though Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/384282-formula-one-2012/page/8/#findComment-6150640 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nee-san Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 If you're going to see a GP in person, at the very least go to somewhere where the race is decent. If you're watching it on TV and would prefer to be pulling your dick, chances you will probably be making your way to the portaloos circa lap 5.

The quad bikes in the dunes is fun though dubai's a little up the road from abu dhabi, abu dhabi looks more touristy (more bars and restaurants ect). i'm not sure about the track either but it's a part of the world i have all ways wanted to see that's why i want to go there, i think between ferrari world + racing + a day in the dunes + some time to check out dubai there won't be any days left from a week. if i went to the italy gp i'd stay alot longer than 7 days, you'd need to drag me away from those pizzerias kicking and screaming.

Roy Posted December 13, 2011 Share Posted December 13, 2011 Yeh, I am in Spa in March...dont think I will be back that late in the year so German GP or one of the Spanish races. Spain may not be the greatest race spectacles but as far as a destination and some fun imagine it will be pretty good. Would love to do Silverstone but fark going back to the UK Spa has a few good spots to spectate but not much cover. So when (if) it rains make sure you have some wet weather kit. My pick of seats would be the downhill section after Bruxelles. A lot of the spectating points dont have stands so general admission tickets are an option...you just have to fight all the campers But if you have a pit pass you probably wont leave the start/finish area Someone should start a thread for OS F1 races in case a number of people are going. I am getting a car inspected next Wednesday so may have already sorted a car for the next European summer Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/384282-formula-one-2012/page/8/#findComment-6150788 Share on other sites More sharing options...
