I've been twice, but my first was the best - 1979.
Tickets cost a then ruinous $25 and another $35 got you a pit-pass!!!!
My mate and I were astounded - walking amoung the actual pits, talking to the engineers and if lucky, the drivers. I think he lifted something from the Ferrari garage (he's Italian) as by race time they were all scampering about looking for something while he looked decidedly guilty!! 
The second time, I was working for Shell and had to spend the whole weekend schmoozing people, so I didn't actually see much of the race. I did meet the Red Team tho' and they were quite a lot of fun (despite being a McLaren guy).
I have no idea what it costs now and I probably wouldn't enjoy it as much
but it's definately worth a see. |
What a great experience that would have been - right in the heyday (in my opinion) of Formula One. Ferrari and Alfa Romeo V12s in the tunnel.... what a noise.
