Some superb photos there, I've no idea how managed some of those angles, there's fence all over the place, unless you have media passes?
All mine were spec side, you really shouldn't be intimidated by the fences it is quite easy to shoot through them although a long lens does help.

Here's one that was shot through the fence and today got a half page to itself in Autosport so paid for my ticket and petrol. thumbup

I had my old Fuji, 18-300 bridge camera with me, I'd left my new Canon at home due to the weather (turned out to be the right call!) so I couldn't try shooting through the fence. Nice shot - right place, right time, and if you didn't crop, superb framing.
