You'll also get to see the V8's in action as well
, they always have a non championship race at the GP. Can't beat the sound when they're sitting on the starting grid on the limiter waiting for the lights to go green. Look out for Craig Lowndes and Jamie Wincup in the Triple 8 vodafone team.
Lowndes and Button took each others cars round Bathurst last March.
Hopefully the QF A380 performing a low level flypast along with the Australian Air Force Roulettes and FA18 Hornet, should be a cracking day out, whatever you do dont eat a Dagwood Dog !!

'Watching' 
F1 live in the flesh is ****e IMO. 
At least you can bask in the sun with a few tinnies though.
Shame the British GP isn't at Brands anymore - it's 'bowl'-like topography means you can see a lot of the action (except for when it goes out into the woods, Dingle Dell etc).

FFS, don't encourage him! All we'll get is a him sat outside a bar, in stupid shorts and a cork hat, swigging a bottle of beer (or three), with a sun tan and stupid grin, giving the camera the thumbs up next to a sign saying 'F*ck the lot of you!' ....

There was an offer on flights to Kaula Lumps on HotUKDeals today. Book a flight and you could have free tickets to the Grand Prix.
Would prefer Singapore or Melbourne myself.

Hoping to make it, missed last years race but if a couple of deals close for me tomorrow I might buy a ticket and jump on the plain. A friend of ours has a place in middle park, less that two minutes walk in to the circuit.
Make sure you have a beer in the Gunn Island- right on the edge of the park, which I'm convinced is my spiritual home

Just had an email through from BA. Apparently I can get a free upgrade to First one way. That on top of the letter today informing me of a tasty bonus in this months salary, + an inflation beating payrise and 48 hours overtime, means the beers are on me at the GP.
Have a pleasant evening everyone.
