Default Spa Francorchamps F1 this year. Anybody going?

I have just booked my weekend tickets online for me, my dad and my uncle for Spa in September, the 14th, 15th and 16th.


Anybody else going.??

Tickets for the full weekend start from £80 which is far better priced than the GB gp.


Any PFers making the journey?

My uncle has a brand new 4 berth camper van.

We driving over there and camping in the circuit mate.

The ticket prices are so resonable compared to bloody silverstone.

interesting that you said that dan, i agree totally, but i had a driving experiance tuesday at silverstone ,anyway we had the debriefing afterwards, well it wasn't a debrief, just telling us some facts and why they do track days and driving experiances during the year.

one of the owners/partners of silverstone (it's owned by ex racers basically) said THEY have to pay that little grey haired bloke (can't remember his name, bernie is it?)-

-18.5 million just to hold the grand prix there every year
-hes has ALL the television,media rights (they pay him)
-AND he takes half of everything taken over the weekend in hospitallity!!





hence they do the experiances to make their money back, after making a loss

Bernie Ecclestone.

He nearly closed spa down for last years GP too.

He might as well go to work dressed in a large chicken suit.
