I'm really interested in going....might have to skip off uni one day to do it tho! :twisted:

Does anybody have any advice about this?

Like what time to get there? Best days to do? Does parking cost much? etc. I'd be really grateful for any info as I've never been before.

Thanks in adance!

I often go to the tests and would highjly recommend it. They start at 9am and finsih at about 4pm with an hours gap for lunch. It is totoally free, all you need to pay for is a coffee and or burger or take your own food and drinks along. They usually allow people to stand between luffied and the end of the pit straight, which is good viewing as you gte a good selection of corners.

Unfortunately I can't go as the guy I work with is off instead :(

Well worth going, supposed to be the biggest test this year and the weather is suposed to be good this week. so go along and have a great day.

Does anyone know which teams are attending?

I went last time when super aguri was testing and it was awful. Not many laps were done, I froze and it even started snowing. Unfortunately I won't be able to go this time because of school :(

Good luck to those going :) btw. get us some pics :wink:
The trouble with the rat-race is that even if you win, you're still a rat.

Trust me, take a flask and sambo's because whenever you go to a motorsport event the burgers are about £4 each or something stupid!
