Planning which Gran Prix to go to next year
Help, Fancy a change from the F1 at Silverstone so were planning to go to one of the European F1's next year and maybe two back to backs. Anyone have any tips, info or advice?

If you want to do two back to back why not Barcelona and then spend the next two weeks making your way over to Monaco.

Spa. Greatest race track on the plant after The Ring.

For me, it would be an easy choice, Spa and then possibly down to Monza a week later. I quite like the Nurburgring as modern GP tracks go but obviously that isn't an option as Hockenheim will be hosting the German GP next year.

From experience Spa is a complete and utter dump (although this was before they did it up) to which I still can't understand why I bothered going more than once. Absolutely disgusting place.
Barcelona was nice and cheap (although this was before Spanish people actually went) and can be teamed up with a holiday in Barcelona or on the Costa Brava.
I enjoyed going to the German GP but I went to Hockenheim rather than Nurburgring. I would definately attend a German GP again whether at Nurburgring or back at Hockenheim.
Monza was probably the best European GP I've attended. We stayed on Lake Como and had a great holiday plus we also fitted in a quite trip to the San Siro to see AC Milan play. I really dont care for the Tifosi but the over all holiday was great.My phone has an alarm clock! Ner Ner! :p

Agreed Spa is the one track I would consider.
