Yes!
Staying in Nice from Weds to Monday. Tickets for the swimming pool grandstand and Casino Square. Looking forward to it. Couldn’t believe how reasonable the tickets were. The most expensive part is the budget airline flight.

Compared with the F1 they are an absolute bargain. Fewer people, better cars, better noise. What's not to like?

And one of the days is free!
I’ve previously done the F1 GP and that was well organised and a fantastic thing to experience. I’m hoping this will be just as good but louder.

It's one of the best kept secrets in motorsport and has flown under the radar for years. Personally I think it's the best historic meeting on the calendar. As others have said the flights are the dearest part! You can make it as reasonable or expensive as you like. We stay In Menton two stops on the train from Monaco.

Here's the entry list. https://acm.mc/en/epreuves/grand-prix-de-monaco-hi...

The Corsa Cliente Ferrari parade was worth the entry price alone.
Fabulous display of 90's and early 2000's V10/12/8 the noise made my hair stand on end..

Watched this for the first time on YouTube today. I think I'm going to have to make the trip next year. I love Monaco, but never been for a race so it seems like a no-brainer.

Yep, I intend to go too.

I think it is every two years, though?

What absolutely awful luck for Bradley after a superb race. I really enjoyed that.

Some great driving, but also some very rich men who no idea how to drive, causing untold damage to cars lovingly restored by very skilled people.

It for me is one to avoid for that reason

If not for these people these cars would be sitting in museums gathering dust.
