Going to the Italian GP !!!!

[gobber man]

I am just about to order tickets for Monza, the question is the best place on the track for the best action ???

[catso]

Curva Parabolica is always good for action (is for Bikes anyway)

[gruffy]

6 or 8 definitely!
Prima Variante (first corner) I think that stand's called.
8 would be my strong recommendation!
The Porsches were absolutely flying off at that corner last year too.

Beware, Milan is a rather smelly city.

[gruffy]

Yeah, I wasn't a big fan of Milan, but the drive home over the Stelvio Pass was a treat - DONT FLY!

On your map Grandstand 7 would be best, you'll the start finish straight, pit exit and also the passing zone for the stupid chicane (single now not the double in your pic).

What's the date for the GP? I quite fancy a drive to Italy, and where can you book tickets G Man?

[agent006]

13, 15, or 17 are quite good too.
All the grandstand seats are reserved by number so you can bog off for a walk and come back to the same seats.

Edit:
If you've not already got it sorted, do the following:
Fly to Malpensa airport
Get the train/bus to Milan central station
Stay at the Michelangelo hotel.
Get the train (free) to the circuit.

I bet there's just no atmosphere, it'll be boring, crap food, horrible scenery on the drive over there, all the girls will be ugly as sin and it will be snowing.

lucky git!

Have a nice time.

I`ll wave at you from the pit lane.

For the Monza racw you must go "tooled up". The first time I went, I was amazed at the number of fans carrying bolt cutters! They use them to cut the fence in order to undertake the customary track invasion when the race has finished. Took me best part of an hour once to get from pit lane to the tunnel under the old banking in a van. Good laugh though.

Oooooh.....sounds fun.

They hang around the circuit at points wher there is likely to be an "off".

I`ve seen fights between grown men over a bit of nondescript (but admittedly red!) carbon fibre.

First to the tyre wall wins - hence the bolt cutters.
