Lol usual inflated prices for beer and burgers ... don't know about France but would be surprised if different.

In terms of entertainment they all do something different so check the gp site itself for France...

Thanks mate, we were worried that there would be little to do. What is the catering like, many options? Also, what are prices for beer? :)

If Magny Cours is anything like Silverstone, food and drink is pretty expensive. £5 burgers/ rolls and similar for beers. To be fair, there is quite a lot of choice food wise.

The French will probably be selling red/white wines and croissants:D

Looks like there's a fun fair, adrenaline park, F1 challenges etc.

Thanks mate, we're now going sat-sun, need a relaxing day tomorrow. Plus, the pickup transfer is at 7:45.
Have a great time. Last one I did was 15 years ago at Spa when Schuey reigned supreme.

Cheers mate, watched the glory days on TV. Not sure what to expect really, looking forward to my 1st F1 weekend.

Has anyone been to many F1 races, we're going to the french Grand Prix, but we're not sure if the three days will be too much? Is there enough to fill the days? Might look at going to just qualifying and race.
Done the British four times. Twice at my own expense, once as a full hospitality guest of BMW and once as a guest of the RAC again full hospitality including Helicoptered in from Milton Keynes. Won't happen again, now retired and of no use to either the manufacturers or the RAC :rolleyes:

Seems MB are having issues this year and they may need to delay the new engine upgrade again.

Camshaft problems according to Crofty this morning.

@Capra

Loads to do, food will be expensive as will beer but there will be loads of choice

We take all our own booze into Silverstone every day, wheeled cool boxes are great, we do buy food though but only lunch as we do a full cooked brekky every morning and have steaks etc for supper on the grille
