Forum Trip to the British Grand Prix 2011
by Lee, Monday, 12 July 2010 12:19 Comments(0), Read all


Following on from an excited conversation in the chat room during qualifying on Saturday, the idea of a forum group trip to next year's British Grand Prix is gathering pace.

I've been to the GP once before & wholeheartedly recommend it as an amazing day out.

Admittedly it's not cheap, but the entertainment starts at 7am - yes, really, and goes on until well after the GP finishes. If we book early enough, discounts are available, so better to act now than leave it until later!

What we're proposing is to get seats in the new 'VILLAGE A' grandstand, which gives some of the best views of the circuit, including the classic maggotts / becketts complex plus the new arena section. If we book collectively, we'll all get seats together.

The cost of this currently stands at £183 for entry & a grandstand seat, which sounds a lot, but put aside the money from one little £3.50 stitching job per week between now & then & that's your ticket paid for.

If you're interested, PM or email myself or Lee & we'll get names together.

Ideally we need to act promptly to ensure we get the discount price (£229 is the regular price), so names to us as soon as you can please, BY THE END OF JULY we'll then contact all those interested to let you know what the situation is.
