Been a few times, t'is a great day. I would get there very early though. I usually get there for 7am, have a mooch around the pits before the masses arrive.

Last year one of the Red Bull guys let me look around the RB6 as I was the only one there and asked nicely  :smiley:

A good viewing spot is just before the bridge near the house. You can see the cars coming up the straight.

Brilliant weekend, think I've been 4 out of the past 5 years, highly recommend it. What day you going? Sat and sun are the best days for famous faces and decent track action, Fridays bit quiter andjus a bit nicer to walk around the pit area and stands without being shoved about

I was there Thursday and yesterday - great day out and well worth the expense. But sooo busy Sunday. Thursday only cost £20 though, and is quiet if you just want to mooch around the cars and stands all day.
