I would still get there around the same time 10:30-11, I wouldn't be in any rush to see the sprint, it is only 16 laps and it goes super quick, not that exciting... you do want to see the Porsche Carrera Cup race and the actual F1 qualification, all of that happens between 1-5 PM

I ended up getting tickets at start/finish line for Saturday and Im really excited. Sat at turn 18 last year so interested to see how this compares. Tickets for Saturday were much less than Sunday race and with the addition of the sprint race this year the value was a no brainer for me.

Start/Finish is awesome. I got to see all of those sick overtakes by Max last year.

Everyone enjoy the race? We had a blast. Start/finish was great on sat and turn 18 was really good for the race. We sat far enough back to be out of the sun both days so the heat wasn't too bad. Would sit there again.

Saw 2 Bugatti Chiron getting a police escort on Sunday, that was cool.

We used lot 35 both days. I eventually bought parking from ticketmaster because I didn't want to roll the dice ...


No one even asked to see my parking ticket for either day! On sunday I asked a lot attendant specifically if he needs to scan my QR and he just ignored me. I wonder how many random people parked there for free!
