Does anyone know how grandstand seating is allocated on Saturday?
I know grandstands are open to all on Friday, and we have a seat reserved for Sunday in the Vale grandstand.
I was just wondering if Saturday seating was open to all like on Friday?

Seriously. I can cope with F2, in fact increasingly I enjoy F2... Porsche? Nah - it's like super slow motion racing. Not there is anything wrong with Porsche, very well sorted drivers cars for sure. It's just hard to stay awake watching them dribble around the track compared to what us F1 fans are used to smile
Never watched a race for 2CVs ?
More entertaining than a season of F1, just a bit slower.

Nah, you want banger racing! towards the end of the session when a few cars are literally falling to pieces the drivers no longer give a f**k and go hell for leather biggrin

Very entertaining and no want for speed. I think I was 9 when my Dad took me and a car flipped and hit the safety fencing a few feet from my face. Quite shocking the first time you hear the slam of a car crumpling like that..

Been there,done some of that.
When SAAB was a fun company to be associated with,did some SAAB only banger racing in the late 80s.
Not sure if there's anything on YouTube of it but I've got it on old VHS tape.
Anyhoo back to F1.

Red Bull are milking the whole Aston Martin tie-up for all they can for this weekend's 1007th F1 race.
Subtle.

Last time I went, if you have a seat reserved on Sunday then you have a roaming GS pass on Saturday, so try out a few spots.

I saw Lando in tears of laughter, but didn’t know what was said.

Maybe Herbert's looking outside to make sure they haven't run over any immigrants that escaped Ferrari's trucks?

Saturday is usually reserved seating as per Sunday, Friday is the only day with 'open' grandstands. But I haven't been since 2016 so it might have changed.
