Nice pics of the ladeez, a shame about the brown stain known as the Yarra was in the background.

A few guys from NSW are heading down tomorrow on a 6am flight....ouch. I am so glad I leave Friday morning at 8.30am.

[Owgasm]

Anyone from qld heading down?
Will be there by about 5-6pm. Probably straight to the crown...

[sh@un]

Thanks rb26zed. Thats the info I am after. Going to start saving now.

You recon 8 years old is perfect age or could you have taken him earlier?

P.S. thanks BenM checking out that site now. Looks good!

Dezz- general admin seats normally ok?

Hahaha seats.... GA there are no seats. You can wander around and enjoy the atmosphere but don't expect a spot where you can watch the race and actually know what's going on (near a big screen etc) unless you get there at 6am and sprint

[raZ1911]

For people who have been to F1 races, is there any way of listening to the commentary live or even watching it live while you are there in the stands?

[Shell]

Most stands are opposite a big screen which keeps you up to date - although some are a bit hard to hear (Clarke stand!).

However, you can buy headphone things that double as a protector of your ear drums and also have the commentary. They are around $50.

These things:

[raZ1911]

Do they to those types of things if you are overseas as well?

[Shell]

ah sorry I have no idea about overseas races, I thought you just meant Melbs

[tweety bird]

so like i'm not going.

[G3TFKD]

These things:

That's pretty cool!

First time to an F1 event... Do you guys recommend getting earplugs? Is it that much louder than the V8's?

Can't wait to check out the action!

[tweety bird]

god yes.
