Hi. Are any of you heading to Spa next weekend? I am travelling over with my son in our Caterham - camping for 3 nights. Never been before - looking forward to it.

Hi Mike

I booked my race tickets back in march. I used Grandprix Tickets - they arrived last week. I got the weekend tickets in Gold grandstand at Eau Rouge.

We are staying in Camping L'eau Rouge. Seems to get ok reviews. About a mile walk to the circuit. Leaving on the Monday morning to avoid the mass exodus!

Let me know if you want any more detail.

Jim

I was so glad I had grandstand tickets. As 2 GKC says, Bronze tickets was a free for all. Saturday seemed more chaotic than Sunday. Camping at l'eau Rouge was fine and there was a shuttle bus - apart from Sunday afternoon when we had to walk back. It's a fantastic weekend albeit it very busy. Be prepared to walk a long way as well. They made the pedestrian tunnels one way after the race which meant we had to walk the circuit to get back to our exit.

We left the campsite about 9pm on Sunday when the roads were quiet - and was back home in Oxfordshire at 3am.

It's one ticked off the bucket list!
