Hi All,
looking at going to the Singapore GP this year and have two options of tickets to get, the general admission one is £120'ish and in Zone 4, I can't seem to find where zone 4 is (what corners) and where we can we can walk around to/from?

The other option is for the Bay Grandstand between 17 and 18 (where the cars come under the stand) and is £145'ish, but a bit concerned this will have limited viewing?

Anyone been that can offer some advice please?

Tickets Purchased for the Esplanade Grandstand. smile

Got two hotel options, the Holida Inn express (mainly because we know what to expect), but also considering the "Nostalgia Hotel", which may be a bit nicer and more "local feel" than the HI.

The Holiday Inn we were looking at is the one on Magazine Road? Just south of the river, I think it's a fairly new building based on what's shown on Google Streetview.

We've read good reviews about the Nostalgia hotel, but the rooms look tiny and some of them don't even have a window. I know we won't be spending much time in the hotel room over the week we're there, but still, I'd like the hotel to at least have a window. We generally use Holiday Inn expresses whenever we go away, you know what you're going to get after all. With the Nostalgia, I fancied a change which is why we looked at some others. We've booked both flexibly and will be deciding soon on which to keep and which to cancel.

Thanks very much for the info and help, it's very much appreciated. beer
