Dubai 24 hour race - any tips?

[Tinohead]

Anyone going/been to the Dubai 24 hour race? I'm heading there tomorrow and just wondered if anyone could add to my knowledge of what to expect?

Have been three times. Expect no hassles and access all areas - no admission charge. And free Red Bull.

Unlikely to be a large crowd and most of the atmosphere will be in the pits / paddock. Not a lot of people did it, but I always used to wander down to the inside of the first corner. You can get to the fence (or used to be able to).

Great, thanks! Sounds like a good way to clear my hangover today, and the weather is cracking!
