I had a fantastic weekend at the Grand Prix. The fact that Ferrari won 1 and 2, you couldnt possibly ask for anything better. Especially being a mad Ferrari fan.
As for action on the track, we had absolutely no action whatsoever at turn 11 for the 1st 3 days. I pretty much done nothing the whole weekend. All this changed on the Sunday, during the last Porsche Carrera Cup race. One of the cars smashed head on to the wall, and spun onto the gravel trap. The exciting and most scary thing about this, was that I was standing 40cm away from the barrier where the car hit. After I retrieved the car, I went back to the spot where I was standing, and noticed that the entire barrier had moved 40cm back. Thats when I sh*t myself!! I was lucky I wasnt leaning against the barrier, because I would have been thrown a mile away, and possibly be seriously injured..
But apart from that, It was a fantastic weekend...
