Bit of a bucket list thing for me but I’m heading there in May for the full 5 days and was wondering:
- anyone else from the forum going to be there ?
- anyone considering driving down ?

Quite keen on the latter if there were one or two other people considering it...

Def a bucket list for me as well, but I only want to do it when I am in a position to spend £10k for me and the misses on that week end and not feeling guilty about it... so might need a couple more years to get to that point :) may be a retirement gift for me !!
One of my best friend did that, renting 2 seats on an amazing flat balcony, overlooking the whole track... all you can eat and drink champagne etc... lifetime/bucket list experience in his words

Yep I’ll be there Blox, first time for me.

I’ve paid €700 for my tickets and all I can eat and drink for the two days in a restaurant on Rascas....they will lose!

Happy to meet up, think I’m flying out Thursday and coming back Tuesday.

One I'd love to do, my brother went quite a few years ago, he ended up watching it from a yacht in the marina! I've been proper green eyed monster for that!!

We’ve gone (me and my business partner) a bit crazy and booked 5 days (4 nights) on a yacht moored up by the chicane just after the tunnel. We’ve been in business together 5 years this month and thought.......”what the **** !”
Conaero - we will be there Thursday to Monday with a similar approach to the bar tab. It would be great to meet up ! You don’t fancy driving down then ???

Will do. I’ll dig out all the info tomorrow and send across. The company we are using though is called Senate Grand Prix.

Impressive! Is it just the two of you or is it like a corporate share thing?
I think there are 10 of us in total staying on board. No idea who the other 8 are. They then have people ferried on board to watch the practice sessions, qualifying and the race. The rest of the time, the boat (and the bar) is ours....
